Ten-Year-Old Saves Stranded Humpback Whale | Australia News

from Australia News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

A ten-year-old girl named Scarlet became an instant hero after she and her mom saved a stranded humpback whale on K’gari Island. When the massive creature got stuck in shallow water, Scarlet sprang into action, splashing water to keep it alive while her mom, Chantelle Smith, watched in heartbreak. Despite the tense odds — many beached whales don’t survive — their calm persistence made all the difference until the tide returned and authorities arrived. The whale swam free, and Scarlet’s bravery proves that even the youngest among us can make a life-saving impact. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
