Disentanglement efforts are underway in Canadian waters after scientists with the New England Aquarium spotted a young North Atlantic right whale entangled in rope over the weekend...they were aboard the vessel FRC Charlie with the Canadian Whale Institute and Équipe de Désempêtrement du Golf.
Researchers followed the whale for about an hour to assess how entangled she was and then attached a buoy to the trailing rope to transmit information via satellite about her location.
