(From telegraph.co.uk)- Vets plan to euthanise the whale early on Friday morning, if it has not died naturally by then. Authorities are expected to use a lethal dose of anaesthetic. Whale whisperer Bunna Lawrie pleaded with the authorities to spare Colin. “He heard me singing and came over. I looked at him and he was full of life. He had a few scratches and cuts on him and I was a bit worried about his eyes. All he needed is a mother”s milk,” he told the Sydney Morning Herald newspaper. “There was hope another whale could pick him up and adopt him. He could have at least learned to swim with them and eat krill and plankton.”
