""There are indications that its condition is worsening. Its breathing frequency has reduced," Backhaus said."
""It could now, if it wanted to, get on its way," Backhaus said."
""When we gently tried to reanimate it, by striking the water loudly with our paddle, it barely reacted," Saalman told reporters."
""It's not making any more noises. This lack of movement and responsiveness is concerning for its health," Saalman added."
A humpback whale stranded in the Baltic Sea has been showing signs of deteriorating health, with reduced breathing frequency. The whale has only moved slightly, approximately 1 to 1.5 meters in the last 24 hours. Rescuers are hopeful that rising water levels may provide an opportunity for the whale to free itself. Experts indicate that the whale's ability to escape is largely dependent on its own actions, as external assistance is limited. Observers note the whale's decreased responsiveness to stimuli, raising concerns about its condition.
