Rescue Team Works to Save Humpback Whale in Praia Grande

Marcelo de Lima recorded this drone footage of the attempted rescue of a humpback whale beached in Praia Grande, Brazil. A team of people patiently worked to move the humpback whale back towards the water, using ropes and machinery.

Following the recording of the video, the team were successful in getting the whale back into the water. However, the creature later died against the rocks once back in the sea. Credit: Marcelo de Lima via Storyful
