A 45 TON humpback whale is freed after being tangled in heavy fishing line for a whole week. Using a pole equipped with a knife, a rescue team was able to cut away several hundred feet of line from its tail. The 45ft whale was first spotted off the coast of Hamakua, Hawaii, but rescue operations was delayed due to poor weather and sea conditions. The NOAA Fisheries Science Center, Hawaiian Islands Humpback National Marine Sanctuary and the West Hawaii Marine Mammal Response Network coordinated the rescue operation, which took seven hours.
