During a vacation on the St. Lawrence River in Canada,teenagers saw a newborn beluga thrown ashore.15-year-old Nicholas Billion told how he and his younger brothers managed to save the animal.
The children immediately dug a hole for the beluga so that water could accumulate in it.
Every fie minutes they poured water so that the animal’s skin did not dry out.A family from Quebec immediately called rescuers and continued to take care of the baby until the arrival of specialists.And soon rescuers returned the animal to the water.
All hope that the baby will be reunited with his mother or he will be fed by another beluga.Unfortunately,this has not yet happened.Belugas feed and take care of their baby for two years,without maternal support the baby simply cannot survive.
Once thousands of belugas lived in the St Lawrence River,now their population has decreased to 900 individuals,and the reason for everything is pollution of the reservoir.
Anyway,now the rescued beluga has a chance to survive.And all thanks to the efforts of caring boys.
