In a remarkable display of community spirit, New Zealanders helped to save more than 30 pilot whales that became stranded on a beach in Northland. Volunteers formed a human wall and worked together to refloat the whales, using sheets to lift them back to safety. This heroic effort has been praised, with the rescued whales reportedly safe at sea as of today. The collective action highlights the dedication and compassion of the public in responding to marine wildlife emergencies.
