Reached by telephone on the beach in La Panne where he was this Sunday, Kelle Moreau, from the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences, confirms that it is difficult to save an animal of this type when it gets closer to the coast. In this case, the orca remained near the coast for several hours. “He remained very close to the Coast all the time. He tried a few times to go out to sea, but with the waves it was difficult for him. He came back to the beach all the time.”says Kelle Moreau.
In a case like this, rescuers can try to move the animal away from the Coast. This is what was done this Sunday. “Owe tried with the rescue services and with a small vessel to position ourselves between the animal and the beach to avoid stranding“, says Kelle Moreau. “But it didn’t work“, he explains. The animal finally became stranded.
