I've been moved to tears today about the passing of Colin the Humpback Whale, that got stranded in Sydney's inner harbour for almost a week. Despite all the "professional" advice on what was best for Colin, it's still so terribly sad that a beautiful creature, helpless without it's Mother had to be put to sleep. No more suffering, starving and worst of all, probably so distressed as to what was going on, no Mum in sight. I'm wondering if the Mother knows of this outcome, they seem to have powers of communication that we humans have still to learn of. I console myself by knowing that there is no more suffering and he is at peace. why do these things happen?
Only GENUINE animal lovers answer please.
