Rescue
A rescue operation by three brave navy men for one of the many Short-finned pilot whales (Globicephala macrorhynchus) in their mass stranding in Panadura, Sri Lanka in November 2020. It was an all-night operation by the villagers, Navy/Coastguard men and many nature loving volunteers which eventually relocate about 100 whales to deep sea.
