Ten whales stranded on Ujong Kareung Beach, Gampong Durung, Aceh Besar, Monday, November 13, 2017.

The incident occurred at around 10 am, started from reports of local residents. This news is immediately known to many people, and then the beach was visited by the crowd to see firsthand the whale group that washed up to the beach's lips.

According to expert observations, this type of Sperm Whale is characterized always along with his friends to find food.

The whaling of this whale begins with one of them being sick and wounded, leaving the sick whale stranded, then his friends faithfully join him.

The enthusiasm of people to see the whales increased, seen many students and students of veterinary science trying to help the whales by pushing these whales into a sea pulled by a motor boat by related parties.

Some people try to flush the whale's body, to keep it wet to keep the temperature steady, and the sick whale has also been injected to survive.

The evacuation team continues to pull whales back into the sea. A whale was driven into the sea, but returned to the shore.

Until now, the evacuation process is still continuing.
Hope they are fine..

they went back to the shore after they were pulled back in the sea?
then they may be asking for help

something must be wrong with one or two of them
whales don't abandon each other ..

any sea or marine biologist getting involved?

Yes. when the whale is pulled by a motor boat toward the sea, they always come back to wait for their sick friend. Very faithful waiting.

Among them are animal specialists, marine biologists, Natural Resources Conservation and several others. But the pope's fourth life can not be helped. Very sad :(

that's sad
I twitted about it
that's good to know that marine biologists got involved
you're very lucky I want to see one ^ ^

Thanks @englishtchrivy for your attention. Nice to know you :)
