Injured Whale Calf Stranded at Bhuigaon Beach in Vasai-Virar

An injured whale calf was spotted at Bhuigaon Beach in the Vasai-Virar area of Maharashtra, repeatedly returning to the shoreline despite multiple attempts to guide it back into the sea.

The young whale calf is believed to have become separated from its mother. According to observers, the calf swam back toward the beach each time it was released or pushed back into the water.

The repeated strandings have raised urgent concerns among local residents and animal lovers regarding the marine mammal's physical condition and its chances of survival.

In response to the situation, locals have called for immediate rescue efforts, medical treatment for the calf's injuries, and assistance to ensure its safe release back into deeper waters.
