Another Sydney Whale Disentanglement

[BruceK]

Rescuers from multiple organizations combined to disentangle this juvenile humpback whale over 2 days. The rescue inside the harbour was abandoned on day one due to fading light. A tracking device fell off overnight, possibly while it was offshore. but this smart whale returned to the harbour next day where the team waited,ready for a successful round 2. Do whales know people are trying to help, no idea, but maybe yes.
NB. If video story is missing, see post 3 below with another report which I hope stays available.

I'd say yes, they do have big brains.

Uh-oh, the You Tube TV News story I posted with all the detail may have disappeared. Here`s another, less comprehensive, but it helps. If it stays up.
