(3,403 posts)1. I love that story, especially how the whale appeared to thank each of the divers one by one after
she was freed. Knowing we used to harpoon these magnificent creatures makes me so sad. The divers were very brave since one flip of her tail could have easily killed them.

I had not heard it before.
The communication between the whale and the rescuers was remarkable!
