Poor whale say I. Turns out it hadn't eaten for 3 days.
But then again, I can just imagine all the "helpers" and do-gooders stood round over it's emaciated body saying to each other
"I thought you had the squid to feed it"
"No, you said you were bringing the food"
"Did ANYONE bother to feed it"
Do they think it just drank water to stay alive?

They get their water from food.
It was trying to get to the Atlantic but made a wrong turn.
I would hate to be the person bring enough squid to feed a 5 tonne whale!

Alan if it makes you feel better

I was there and I did actually hear one of the helpers ask '' Has anyone got sixquid to feed this thing?'' and got the response '' whats the porpoise of that, it's going to die anyway''.


Oh ..alright then.:( I'll close the door quietly on my way out:(
