Tangled Humpback Whale Sparks Rescue Mission Off Australia
- Rescue teams are ready to assist an adult humpback whale spotted near the southern area of Sydney Harbour, which is caught in rope and pulling a light-colored buoy behind it.
- The whale travels south against its usual northward migration path for June, indicating distress and unusual behavior.
- On Sunday, ORRCA collaborated with the state wildlife authorities to attempt freeing the whale, but rough seas and strong winds caused them to lose visual contact.
- Jessica Fox of ORRCA said the whale has rope entangled on its left pectoral fin with a light-colored buoy about 20 metres behind it, and urged rapid sightings to plan rescue.
- The whale's movement south and irregular speed suggest stress, prompting public calls to report sightings to Hotline 02 9415 3333 for coordinated rescue efforts.
