A dingo eats one of two humpback whale calves. They were found dead on K'Gari on Saturday morning. One of the whales washed up at 7:30am, just south of the Cathedrals. The other calf, a newborn, was found at Brown Rocks at approximately 8am, and appears to have been badly bitten by a shark before washing up on the beach. Soon after the whales were found, rangers were alerted by the public and moved the carcassess of the beach and onto the grass over the dunes.,

Sea World whale rescuers have performed their second dramatic liberation of a stricken humpback off the northern NSW coast in a week. Members of the Sea World Foundation rescue team on Friday completed a gruelling two-day operation to free a humpback heavily entangled in rope and buoys. The snared whale was first sighted on 13 June off Burrewarra Point, near Batemans Bay on the NSW South Coast. A rescue mission was launched on Thursday after the animal was spotted off Sandon Point in northern NSW. With daylight rapidly fading, the Sea World rescuers found the whale off Angourie and deployed a satellite tag to allow them to continue the mission on Friday. After successfully tracking the whale, they spent three hours removing the rope and buoys to allow it and a companion humpback to continue their northern migration Picture ORRCA
