Taking care of one another....


Whales and other sea mammals sometimes get stranded in fish nets/lines, or get "beached".....and sometimes we can help.

Orca rescue in British Columbia.....it's nice to see us be care givers...as well as care takers:

Thank you Motoged- great post, happy outcome for the orca.

Killer Whales have been known to save humans so it is nice to see homo sapiens returning the favour! What I found most interesting was that a seal was heard vocalizing...something I had never heard of! They say it sounded like laughing..... instant karma? The whale got lodged on the rocks trying to eat a seal for lunch!
