Whale rescued from tangled marine gear - Rob Tucker - 12-07-2009

There's a happy ending apparently for a young Humpback whale off Oahu which was entangled in a few hundred feet of polypropylene rope.

It's nice to hear a happy ending and I applaud and thank those who were devoted to this rescue effort.

I hate that there is crap like that out there for the poor guy to get caught up in. I am glad these good people were able to help for sure!
