Rescue Efforts Intensify for Entangled Gray Whale Off California Coast

Multiple attempts to free the whale have been hindered by its aggressive behavior, complicating the ongoing rescue mission.

A gray whale entangled in a fishing net off the California coast has evaded multiple rescue attempts since March.
Rescuers have attached buoys and a satellite tag to the net, but the tag has since fallen off, losing track of the whale's exact location.
The whale, part of the annual gray whale migration from Mexico to Alaska, is suffering from restricted movement due to the net's weight.
Efforts to cut the net have been unsuccessful, as the whale becomes aggressive when approached.
Rescue teams from NOAA and the Marine Mammal Center continue to search for the whale, hoping to disentangle it and prevent future incidents.
