A female killer whale that beached in northern Vancouver Island died on Saturday despite efforts by the community to push the mammal back into the water.
Video of the incident, which occurred near the village of Zeballos on the island’s northwest coast, shows dozens of people trying to save the stranded orca.
The female orca was stranded on shore in the Little Espinosa Inlet, about nine kilometres southwest of the village, at low tide while a calf swam nearby, said Florence Bruce of the Ehattesaht First Nation.
Bruce and her fiancĂ©e, Kyle Harry, were among some 30 people present for the rescue effort.Â
