This baby orca was stuck and crying for hours. A group of strangers saves him

A pod of killer whales was looking for seals along the remote coast of British Columbia in Canada. 

But soon, this typical hunt became a harrowing moment for a young whale.
Rescuers spotted the stranded whale and immediately started to do everything they could to try and comfort her. 

It was a traumatic situation for every involved. The rescuers were heartbroken as they listened to the beautiful orca let out cries of terror and pain. 

 The whale didn’t have much time; her skin was drying up more and more as the tide went out. 

 For six hours, the team put drenched sheets on the orca and ran water over the animal to try to keep it hydrated until the tide came back in.
Check out the beautiful moment the orca swam back out to sea in the video below!
 

“It was a team effort, and fortunately on some level this transient orca understood that we were trying to help.”
