False Killer Whale Calf Rescued – Still Fighting for Its Life

Vancouver, British Columbia – According to workers at the Marine Mammal Rescue Centre of the Vancouver Aquarium, the false killer whale calf found struggling for its life on the shores of the Vancouver Island city of Tofino has survived the night, but an uphill battle still remains if it is to survive, reports the CBC.
Initially, rescuers thought to take the calf to deeper waters where it would be able to swim away to safety, but upon seeing that it was too weak to do that contacted staff at the aquarium who decided to take it to their facility for intensive care.

Its proper gender wasn’t determined as being male until the first night as dedicated staffers took turns dawning wetsuits to keep the calf floating above the water of the rehab pool housing it. As per Martin Haulena, the aquarium’s head veterinarian, the difficulty that lies ahead with the calf, which he described as being in critical condition, relates to disconcerting drops in the mammal’s respiratory and heart rates. Thus far, staff have performed diagnostic tests on it and are caring for it with the aim of having it gain weight. By their estimates, this calf is very young have been born no more than six weeks ago. Haulena also confirmed that the calf hasn’t the strength to swim on its own.
For now, the calf is in a rehab pool better suited to support its small size. It is being nourished on a mixture of specially designed formula for its sort of marine mammal, along with other fluids and antibiotics. Given that the calf has not yet developed teeth, Haulena said it was still nursing from its mother. Odds are against the calf surviving. Adding to the difficulty is that there is little global experience caring for stranded false killer whales much less one as young as this one.
