Whale Freed After Fishing Gear Entanglement

A young humpback whale, tangled in fishing gear off Massachusetts, was rescued in a stunning team effort involving boaters, the Coast Guard, NOAA, and the Center for Coastal Studies. With ropes wrapped around its tail, the whale was barely able to float — until rescuers carefully cut it free. This isn’t the first time this whale has been in trouble, with prior entanglement wounds now healing. Experts are working to identify it through their whale studies program, and they’re urging everyone to report any marine entanglements immediately — your call could save a life.
