Locals Rescue 20-Tonne WHALE Stranded On Beach

  • 5 years ago
This is the incredible moment dozens of people rescued a 20-tonne endangered WHALE that was stranded in shallow water. The enormous eight metre long Bryde's whale was seen by fisherman thrashing around in the shallow waters on the coast Ozamiz City, in the southern part of the Philippines on October 31. They called for help and dozens of local men ran through the sea ''Baywatch style'' to help the distressed mammal. They were followed by younger woman and children who helped to heave the beast to safety. Incredible footage shows residents desperately trying for several minutes to free the creature, which marine experts said had may have become disorientated ''due to climate change''.brThey eventually summoned enough power to push the whale along the sea bed, giving it just enough water under its belly for it to glide away into the depths.
