Dynamite not available

Sadly, a beached humpback whale that rescuers had initially succeeded in returning to open water in Namibia, Africa, came ashore again and is now expected to die soon. Named Humphrey by the rescuers that kept the whale alive for two days before towing him back to sea, the humpback has suffered severe burns and possibly collapsed lungs. From the article: “The rescue team had considered putting an end to Humphrey’s misery but they couldn’t get the dynamite needed to end his life.” Exploding whale averted.
