According to the National Post, the rescue team created a special water pump made of glue, pumps and sprinklers available on board. They spend hours spraying whales on their whales and putting wet blankets on them to prevent them from becoming dehydrated.

The fish was initially frightened when the members approached but then gradually calmed down because they noticed people trying to help. A member of the rescue team, Marven Robinson, said the great sea mammal cried out in relief when the first blanket was covered.

"I am thirsty and have a thirst to drink first. 'Ahhh!' The whale cries, relieved, " he said.
