Rescuers transport stranded whale by barge to freedom in North Sea

A humpback whale that repeatedly beached itself near Germany's Baltic coast was released into the North Sea Saturday after two entrepreneurs financed a barge to transport the trapped creature to freedom.  

FRANCE 24

'It's never wrong to do the right thing, and certainly better than doing nothing at all.'

Day 41 ... She's alive, she is free!!! Thank you to all the rescuers and sponsors!!!

When I was a kid, a whale swam upstream to where I lived and got kinda stuck. It was a big deal and people worked together to drive him back downstream and out to the bay. His name is Humphrey the #Humpback Whale. (5 years later he did the same thing again and his name kinda changed to Dumphrey)

Today we have Timmy, a #whale in German waters. An ambitious #rescue attempt is being executed, carrying #Timmy several days north in a flooded barge. 🌸https://www.reuters.com/world/effort-begins-rescue-timmy-humpback-whale-stranded-off-germanys-baltic-coast-2026-04-28/ #humphrey #animal

I trust that staff of the #WhaleSanctuaryProject, experienced in the care, rehab, and release at least of toothed whales, will not "just drop" a critically sick #baleen, #humpback #whale into deep waters.

Ich vertraue darauf, dass Mitarbeitende des Whale Sanctuary Project, die Erfahrung in der Fürsorge, Rehabilitation und Freilassung zumindest von #Zahnwalen haben, einen schwerkranken #Bartenwal, #Buckelwal, nicht einfach in tiefe Gewässer "plumpsen lassen".

After 39 days in the Baltic Sea, humpback #Timmy [ #Hope ] is finally on his way home.
Timmy's destination is the open Atlantic Ocean and hopefully a new life among a humpback family. Have a good trip ...

I wonder how #Timmy the #humpback #whale, that keeps getting stuck on sand banks on the way out to open (baltic) sea, did not get stuck on the way in.
