GREAT VIDEO!! - Humpback Whale Shows Amazing Appreciation After Being freed

Click here: LiveLeak.com - Humpback Whale Shows Amazing Appreciation After Being Freed From Nets

Humpback Whale Shows Amazing Appreciation After Being Freed >From Nets
Michael Fishbach, co-founder of The Great Whale Conservancy (GWC),
narrates his encounter with a young humpback whale entangled in local
fishing nets.

At first, the animal appeared to be dead, yet Fishbach investigated and
quickly discovered that the poor creature was tangled in a fishing net.
The humans had to act fast; what began as a tragedy soon became a
thrilling rescue as Fishbach and his crew labored to free the young
whale. The entire encounter was caught on videotape and later narrated
by Fishbach himself.

This young whale knows how to show appreciation by treating them to a magnificent aerial spectacle after it was finally freed.

I just watched this and wanted to share...

Susan

It is always so touching to see people take the time and care to save an animal - thank you for sharing that video. I had to explain to my six year old why I was all teary-eyed at the breakfast table!
