Humpback whale stranded off German coast released into North Sea
A young humpback whale that became stranded in shallow waters off Germany's coast in early March was transported by rescuers in a water-filled barge and released into the North Sea off Denmark. The whale swam out of the barge and was observed swimming freely, though marine experts have stated its survival chances are low. The rescue was funded by two multimillionaires and criticized by the International Whaling Commission and local oceanographic experts as inadvisable.
