Down The Shore: A Whale Of A Time!
 |
 |
This is quite a feat. When I'm on the beach, I don't want to get up for anything that doesn't involve me immediately getting back on the towel and going to sleep. But apparently people in Sea Isle are good people, and so a group of about 20 of them rolled two whales (a baby, which was easy, and a mother, which took extra support) back into the ocean.
There's been no sight of the whales since we humans pushed our fellow mammal back into the ocean, but Mitch Myers, who helped rescue the whale, knows what he'll remember:
"That's the biggest mammal I've ever touched,” said Myers.
Just in case you thought he had touched a larger whale.
