Watch a whale being saved

People might preach about saving the whales, but here’s a video of a whale literally being saved from the fish nets tangled around it by five people on a boat who thought they’d encountered a dead whale. The beast then proceeds to spend an hour offering an incredible show of gratitude to its saviours.

    This restored my faith in human nature and then the Japanese just announced they’re going whaling again this Summer in Antarctica. Back to square one.
