A huge pod of 77 pilot whales beached themselves Thursday in Scotland in the largest event of its kind since 1995.
The devastating situation was brought to the attention of the British Divers Marine Life Rescue (BDMLR) around 10:45 a.m. Sunday as the long-finned pilot whales started beaching on the isle of Sanday in Orkney, according to BDMLR. When the team of medics arrived, they found at least 77 of the majestic creatures high onto the beach, suggesting they’d been there for several hours.
