A beluga whale, whose life was at risk after it strayed into the River Seine, was lifted out of the river on Wednesday as authorities continued to work on its rescue.
The extraction of the 800 kg cetacean, which took six hours, was witnessed by a Reuters photographer and by the marine conservation group Sea Shepherd France.
"The veterinarians are not necessarily optimistic concerning the beluga's health," Isabelle Dorliat-Pouzet, secretary general of the Eure prefecture, told BFM TV.
