The entangled whale, Eg #3294, was sighted this morning off the coast of Georgia by the Wildlife trust Georgia aerial survey team. The Georgia DNR Research Vessel Hurricane responded and was able to attach a temeletry buoy to the trailing line behind the whale. The buoy sends a signal allowing researchers to track the whale. This will make future disentanglement attempts much easier to locate the whale. Zach was onboard the R/V Hurricane and looks forward to sharing his story!
