Giant rubber whale helps Kiwi rescuers battle beachings

Wellington (AFP) Dec 20, 2021

A two-tonne rubber whale can take on a life of its own in the frigid shallows of a windswept New Zealand beach, particularly when a bedraggled group of would-be rescuers is trying to wrestle it into a harness.

“Keep the blowhole clear… you’re too close to the tail, one swipe can do a serious injury to yourself and the whale,” an instructor yells as the Wellington rain lashes his pupils.
