The Australian: 120 whales stranded on NZ beach:
"The whales became stranded on Puponga Beach near Farewell Spit in the north of the South Island early this afternoon as the tide went out, said John Mason, the local manager of the Department of Conservation."
The New Zealanders are working hard to preserve the lives of the whales. Seems a bit odd the whales didn't go back out to see with the tide. With that many whales the people trying to help them are in danger of being squashed or hurt and so they haven't been able to stay on the beach overnight to help keep them wet. They used buckets of water and wet sheets to try and keep the whales alive. I hope it works. I hate it when we have strandings.
