QLD:Marine experts hopeful for rescued whale
Marine experts have examined footage of two mother whales with their babies off eastern
Australia, and have ruled out one calf as the animal rescued from the Gold Coast yesterday.
A one-week old humpback was saved from Surfers Paradise beach and rescuers were hopeful
it would reunite with its mother.
Sea World director of marine sciences TREVOR LONG says there is also video of a female
whale near Tweed Heads in northern NSW which was acting in a different manner to other
whales in the area.
He says their fingers are crossed that it's the mother of their calf.
