An injured whale was rescued after it was discovered floating along the coast of Zamboanga del Sur, a report on Unang Balita on Tuesday said. The whale had wounds on different parts of its body that made it difficult for it to swim and navigate the shore.

The Pagadian City maritime police found the injured whale while they were patroling the coast.

The whale was turned over to the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources for treatment, before it was allowed to be released back into the ocean.
