LISTEN As This Stranded Orca Cries To The Rescuers Who Are Trying To Save Her!
An orca, or killer whale, is the largest member of the dolphin family. They are highly adaptable and intelligent. They can communicate and even coordinate while hunting, according to us.whales.org.
Orcas are predators and hunt sea lions, seals, fish, and squid. Orcas are not typically a threat to humans, but some stories tell of killer whales protecting humans from sharks! Off the coast of Canada, an orca had become stranded on some rocks.
A man, luckily, saw her and knew she needed help! He called a group of Guardians from Hartley Bay, British Columbia and some people from For Whales also came to help.
All the people who came out were volunteers. According to a Facebook post, the killer whale had been on those rocks for hours. They covered the whale with tarps and sheets to help keep her cool and wet.
They assembled a water pump. The volunteers said that the whale seemed to know that they were trying to help her and that the when the whale cried, their hearts ached.
The rescuers continued to keep the whale wet as the tide slowly crept up. After more than six hours the tide was high enough for the orca to get free from the rocks!
The Facebook post extended a big thank you to the community that has come together to help and protect the helpless whale! The video shows the rescuers and the moment the whale is finally free.
You can tell by the emotion in the woman’s voice that is was a long, hard day – but it was also worth it! Share away, people!
UPDATE: Lizzie and Phantom are currently recovering in an outdoor koala ward within the Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital . They’re doing swimmingly; Phantom is both gaining weight and exploring his temporary habitat. And of course, mama and baby are sharing more adorable cuddles! For most species in the animal kingdom, the bond between mother and baby is incredibly strong. That's pretty much inarguable. But last week, two koalas in Australia further proved it. After they were hit by a car, Lizzie and her joey, Phantom were welcomed into the Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital. Six-month-old Phantom had escaped the accident unscathed. Lizzie, however, wasn’t looking so good, what with facial trauma and a collapsed lung. In order to survive, she needed to go under the surgeon’s knife. But this marsupial mama wasn’t alone during the life-saving procedure. Phantom accompanied her and clung to her as she received treatment. The vets let them be; Phantom was too y...
This "festival" is an event that starts on June 21st of every year during the summer solstice and it lasts for 10 long horrifying days in which 10,000–15,000 dogs (as well as cats) are tortured and then consumed. However, it is estimated 25 million dogs are stolen, sold, bought, and eaten every year with the illegal dog and cat meat trade. A larger percentage of these dogs consist of pets stolen right from their loving families. The rest of the dogs are captured strays from the streets and some raised in dog farms. After these animals are stolen, bought, or captured they are then transported for days without any food or water, crammed in tiny cages together so tightly that they are unable to even move. At the yulin festival, throughout those days, these animals will be hung, burned, skinned, boiled, torched, dismembered, electrocuted and beaten...ALIVE..out in the streets for public view. But If that isn't bad enough, they intentionally torture these animals in f...
Plastic garbage. It’s something we all see everyday. Don’t be fooled to think that these plastics are merely an eyesore. We’ve become so accustomed to using plastic utensils, straws, water bottles and bags that it’s easy to forget the impact this has on our environment and climate. My name is Tyler and I’m in my fourth year of university in Canada, where I’m earning a degree in Environmental Studies. I'm also an environmental activist. Even for someone like me, it’s hard to avoid using plastic at places like fast food restaurant, and that needs to change. I’ve started this movement to highlight calls to action happening around the world, and to grow a community of everyday citizens pressing governments and companies to get serious about cleaning up our rivers, lakes and oceans . When we work together, and keep the pressure on, we really can make an impact. I know this firsthand, after collaborating with activists across Canada to successfully urge th...
