A pod of more than 50 pilot whales died Sunday after a mass stranding on the beach of a Scottish isle.
Just one whale survived, according to marine charity British Divers Marine Life Rescue.
Rescue workers tried to refloat the surviving whales, according to the marine charity, but three more died as rescue teams worked, leaving 12 still alive – 8 adults and 4 calves. The organization said it was an"incredibly complex rescue." The area was remote, so medics needed to drive up to five miles to get service in order to communicate with rescue coordinators. Flotation pontoons also needed to be flown in. The British Divers Marine Life Rescue said the organization was"desperately short of response equipment" after Sunday's rescue efforts.
