Baby Whale Put Down

The humpback whale, nicknamed "Colin" but later found to be female, was discovered at the weekend attempting to suckle from a moored yacht at Sydney's Pittwater Bay after being abandoned by its mother off Australia's east coast.

After a six-day effort to lead the calf back to open sea and re-unite it with other migrating humpbacks, rangers and scientists decided that it would be more humane to destroy the whale.

I think it's horrible that they had to put down the baby whale. They should have tried harder to reunite the baby with a group of whales, or at least try to feed it. Poor dearie.

We could always have the sickeningly lovely thought that the little herd it belonged to was heading towards Japan... so, this would be in an imaginative sense a species of mercy killing ^^

God that's so true. I'll be damned if that baby isn't already in some boxed lunch sets. T_T
