Rescuers in Australia are trying to save a baby humpback whale which has mistaken a moored yacht is its lost mother, Reuters has reported.
“The calf has spent the last day or so in Pittwater (near Sydney) and we believe it has been nuzzling up to a moored vessel in an attempt to find milk,” said Chris McIntosh, Manager for the New South Wales State National Parks.
A team of workers has towed the yacht out to sea to try to lure the calf out into deeper water where may be reunited with its mother.
