An emergency inspector with the Russian ministry spent the evening rescuing a family of beluga whales that beached on the Far East shore near the Sea of Okhotsk. The baby whale, lying quite a distance away from his mother, could be heard screaming through his fear and missing his mom.
According to the Moscow Times, residents of Chumikan village reached out to Alexi Paramonov for help when two adult whales and their baby were stranded on the shore. Paramonov, an expert on whales, found the animals almost one mile from the water.
“The calf was at a distance from his mother and was severely frozen in the wind. He screamed pitifully, these were real sobs, similar to the cry of a small child, the animal was very scared,” stated whale expert Bakht Mavlonov.
“At the same time, his mother was in an equally stressful situation, hitting stones, trying to get closer to her child, and because of that she was wounded.”
Paramonov dug a hole under one of the whales to turn it onto its stomach. When it became beached, she had landed on her side. For the rest of the night, he protected the whales from local predatory animals as well as poachers. Paramonov kept their skin and eyes hydrated with water and placed a blanket over the baby to keep it from hypothermia.
At midnight as high tide rolled in, the whales were able to return to the ocean.
No doubt, there are still angels walking the Earth.
