Volunteers from WWF Indonesia, the Indonesian government, and Indonesian Navy worked together to float the whales back to sea. Beached whales can normally only survive a day or two. Out of the ten, six were successfully rescued and released back to the sea—four others did not survive. It’s unclear why whales beach themselves, but it may be due to sickness, getting lost, confusion from acoustic interference, or as a sign of solidarity with a stranded pod member.

ok, they try to save the whales. i witnessed the opposite in 2001: a group of porpoise (about 30) stranded at the shore of wahai. i joined the people at the shore, because i thought they would try to save the animals.
but they slaughterd the poor creatures by cutting their heads off.
Sign of Solidarity? Wow!
It wasn't only the WWF, government, and the Navy involved, but also the local citizens living at the beach. This news was everywhere on the TV for a few days. Indonesians really love to work together if something happens and they know they can also participate. Hope it won't happen again in the future 🙂
Oh no!
Wow it’s amazing
¿Porqué pasará?¿Puede ser que los barcos que exportan lo que compramos y sonares para aprender de ellos o solo para explorar nuestra mente tan preguntona?
Or submarine sonar
Cok güzel. Inanılmaz muhtesem bir görüntü. 🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷
Whales beach themselves in an effort to escape noise pollution. Watch "sonic sea" to learn more. A great documentary if you have the time.
It's the sonar
sonar not working? why ?
So, so sad
Is this hint that hint that Tsunami is coming Bcoz it is a hot topic going in India right now
I am Proud to be part of the rescue 😃
They're trying to evolve?
What is stranded pod member?
Megalodon theories below .
Lol this remind me of the game Life is strange :0
It's very upsetting to see that so much effort arrives in order to save whales but when refugees show up at borders or washed up at sea, they are treated with hostility and harshness 😔
Where are the government's priorities nowadays?
Indonesia sangat menyayangi paus.
its because our ocean is way too loud for them there ears are very very sensitive they also depend on them to navigate the vast ocean as the visibilty is very low in sea . many whales stranded have evidence of brain damages from all that noise . https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2015/jun/14/stranded-whales-ocean-navy-sonars
Finally Indonesian government, the WWF, and the Military did something useful and something good. I bet most people there where civilian volunteers but all well the diffrent organisation hat the technical devices and expertise.
Before 50k view
You're angry at Trump for pushing mexicans back to their place, but you praise these guys for doing the same to the whales? WTF!!!
Even if humans destroying our planet there still good hearted humans like us
i dont think im one of the usMy country, is do the best👍👍
two days of strugle…unfortunelly we lost 4 of them…i still remember the night when we burried those giants till the last minute…under dark stary sky…it feel so sad…very sad…( sorry my english bad😔)
Seeing everyone come together to help save these whales is truly inspiring.
Too much salty water that they can't stand it, huh? 😀
The navy chipped in to help… Oh the irony…
Bittersweet but very hopeful about humanity.
Where is it in Indonesia shore?
Don’t think there’s a more uplifting thing to watch.
As the only technologically advanced species on the planet, it should be man’s responsibility to take care of the animals and preserve them
Oh ! Có thể giúp chúng trở ra được không ?
Bad rescue 4 dead
Sonar
