25 whales die after mass stranding in Scotland

My Way News - 25 whales die after mass stranding in Scotland: "LONDON (AP) - Rescuers in Scotland say they have guided 44 pilot whales stranded in an estuary back to sea, but 25 other whales from the pod did not survive the incident and died.
Many of the animals died overnight after the pod of whales became stranded at the Kyle of Durness in Scotland's far north at low tide on Friday.
The British Divers Marine Life Rescue said many of the whales had been left on their sides, on top of each other or upside down so they were breathing in sand."
