In the Headlines: the London whale
Video presented by Mark Stevens
The sight of a whale swimming up the Thames captured the attention of the world's media and the imagination of the British public. The Northern bottle-nosed whale did not survive, but its plight and attempted rescue has drawn attention to the work of organisations who work to save such stranded animals. Join us for a special ‘In The Headlines’ event, where Mark Stevens, of British Divers Marine Life Rescue, a central figure in the rescue attempt, will answer your questions and tell us more about what happened.
