This is happening too many times to be coincidental. Local who operates ferry said it swam under a boat, lifting it partially from the water.

I seem to recall there was an incident some weeks/months ago about an injured whale seeking assistance from the local inhabitants of a village or town. As I recall it was tangled in lnets which had cut deeply into its skin. The locals cut it free and treated its wounds
And nursed it back to healthbefore helping it back to sea. I wonder if, since this whale too is injured, whether ot too is seeking aid from the people.

Could be UJ, cockle fishing nets churn up the mud. Sadly, this whale died.

Re: Fin Whale

Our seas are changing temperature, forcing our marine and avian life to adapt to survive, sch a shame this beautiful creature met such an end.
