An attempt to rescue a stranded baby orca on Friday was “close but unsuccessful” according to officials with the Department of Fisheries and Oceans. The orca’s pregnant mother was beached at low tide two weeks ago and died.
Dozens of people attempted the rescue operation in a remote lagoon on Vancouver Island, trying to move the two-year-old orca calf stranded near Zeballos B.C.
The plan was to hoist the baby orca, nicknamed “Brave Little Hunter” with a giant net onto a flatbed truck. Officials had hoped to carry her a short distance and then release her into open water, but it is unclear when another attempt to rescue her could be made.

This poor thing. Too bad they can’t get her with family members who might accept her.

@daveyjones8969 Месяц назад

Dude, she's trapped, physically, from low waters. Her family is probably in hysterics right on the other side, this has happened before.

@almontoya5703 Месяц назад

She has a family but she's trapped. The goal is to try to get her out and rejoin her pod.

@suesamson9991 Месяц назад

Awe the poor momma and both babies ❤️ pray you can set her free

Probably freaking out on the ocean side. This has happened before. *She's trapped by low waters, there's a physical barrier between them.

@brucemanley7593 Месяц назад

Why did you not try to have young one to follow her mother out...?? Had you pulled her mother out to the open water that perhaps something I think she may have followed. Am I incorrect with this idea??

@Royalwar0305 Месяц назад

She was beached and gone when they discovered her that’s why she doesn’t wanna leave the area

@davidfleury2377 Месяц назад

How could had f up?

@user-li9cr1ff7f Месяц назад

So ridiculous. Use a net to corral it, move it to shallows, and get it in the sling. Poor thing.

@colinsellers1143 Месяц назад

When your mom dropped you off at school , did she get fined for littering?

@crazyralph6386 Месяц назад

Sorry, to say but this calf is doomed either way, especially if it has no pod to go to.

@EKSO-El Месяц назад

... absolutely pathetic.. If mere randoms can rescue a humpback whale within hours why the hell has it taken an entire dedicated team 3 weeks to even attempt THEN fail..

@colinsellers1143 Месяц назад

because they have to milk as much money as they can

@mrmelmba Месяц назад

Two weeks. They could have dredged a channel within two days and allowed the whale to swim out on its own.

@The67wheelman Месяц назад

Line of boats tied together with nets and stuff and slowly push it to the channel over the course of a couple of days? Video makes it look like a small little harbour? How narrow is the channel? Obviously it must be looking for a way out or is it waiting for mom to come back? Any chance of luring a pod to the entrance and maybe they can call it out? Lotta questions that probably have been asked already 🤷 Any brave divers wanna try their hand? Hey what about that semi submersible jet ski watercraft thing that’s painted like an orca? Maybe it would follow that with a speaker playing whale song🤷

Another great moment where(Canada) we look stupid, it's been there for weeks I can't believe that we are still here trying. Oh wait it si in BC that kind of explain itself....

@moose994 Месяц назад

why not fly in a trained one adult orca from sea world to show her the way out

@bmint Месяц назад

Because it would probably eat it.. fish eat fish.. dog eat dog.. cat eat bird bro! It’s a carnivorous opportunistic hunter predator.. Let it go

@Thetruthiscosmic Месяц назад

This is one of the dumbest things I've ever read...

@-HumanOnEarth- Месяц назад

Because loading/transporting/unloading a live 4000kg Orca is extremely difficult and also because it wouldn't be able to swim out, when the water receded the land cut this body of water off from the ocean completely.

@wendigo53 Месяц назад

Orca burgers anyone?

@lbabytutorials4852 Месяц назад

Activists don’t want an aquarium to help they rather her die than have an aquarium save her life and will delay this. I hope she’s catching fish and eating the food there trying to give her. If they do get her how are they going to find her pod

@@roman4892 I care about human lives the ones the liberal party is taxing into oblivion record number of people going to food banks an entire generation will never own a home because of reckless spending and by the way orcas are dicks they throw seals into the air and they explode when they hit they water nature is nature it’s just one wale

@hahaheija Месяц назад

Throw a baby back in the ocean to die? How much is this costing?

@-HumanOnEarth- Месяц назад

It still has a pod to return to, the mother died, but orcas live in pods of like 8 and they look after eachother. As for cost, probably not all that much of the overall budget, nevermind the fact that the cost is paying canadian wages so if anything its a net positive for the economy, but still a tiny blip.

@kaibrunnenG Месяц назад

LMAO! We are in 2024 and still don't have any tech developed for these situations that been happening for many many years now. Easiest solution would be an air lift of the Orca. Get a gofund if you have to.

Natural Selection.

@mikey2555 Месяц назад

She was definitely abandoned which is odd Orca behavior. No way a pod unintentionally leaves a calf that young on its own, its usually joint to the mother's side.

@nitalee868 Месяц назад

It said her mother was beached and died after swimming through the narrow channel that got them stuck 💔 she wasn't abandoned, her pregnant mom died 😢 cruel world regardless.
