Thames Whale has died
It is so sad the whale has died. If only the whale had not swum in so far up the The people from British Divers Marine Life Rescue, London Portal Authorities, RSPCA, Metropolitan Police Divers, London Fire Brigade and many more that tried to rescue did an amazing job and did everything they could. Imagine volunteering to go into the
A big thank you to all the people that have helped this whale and thank you for keeping BBC and Sky updated with what was happening.
This whale has enlightened & highlighted the topic of marine life for many people, thousands of people were along the river and millions watched it on TV. As one whale has been through a rescue attempt, other whales have been hunted and killed. Animals in need brings out the best in people.
There is always a grumpy lot that is moaning that “What does it costs? The money should have been spent on humans instead” My answer to that is enough money is being spent on humans and people can always speak for themselves of any a concern of how the money is being spent.
An animal does not have that privilege and that is the reason why I only give money to animal charities.
If you want to donate to British Divers Marine Life Rescue, their details are here and here.
Let’s not let this whale die in vain.

I second that about it being amazing how everyone always comes together and fair enough about giving moeny to animal charities, but this doesnt mean we shouldnt give to charities such as the NSPCC who help children living in very poor coniditions in our own country, after all, we are supposed to be the developed western world, so why are people still living in third world conditions?

Isn't sad that we need the NSPCC to begin with? After all, we have the Social Service and all of that infra structure. But the reality is that our society needs NSPCC.
There is a loft of worthy charities out there but my preference is to give to animal charities.
I found out today that the whale died. A little piece of my heart died too. It does up lift my spirits to see the best of humans in time of need though.
