| local.seafdecaqd.extract | Nearly 200 pilot whales stranded themselves on New Zealand's South Island yesterday, with hordes of rescuers rushing to the remote area in a bid to guide them back to sea. Two dozen of the 198 whales had already died despite efforts to save the creatures, which were found stranded on Farewell Spit, a famous spot for whale beachings, Department of Conservation area manager Andrew Lamason said. Experts describe Farewell Spit, located on the northwest corner of South Island, as a whale trap due to the way its shallow waters seem to confuse whales and diminish their ability to navigate. | en |
