'Tony', as the (female) whale became known, was found stranded on Tanjung Aru beach, Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia by a member of the Shangri-la Resort's security team early on the morning of Tuesday 10th January 2012. She was moved to the swimming enclosure at the hotel in order to let her recuperate in safety under the supervision of the Sabah wildlife department with the expert guidance of Marine Biologist Lindsay Porter and assistance from local NGO LEAP and WWF Malaysia.

Volunteers worked around the clock to keep her afloat, monitor her vital signs and try to get her to feed. After 36 hours of recuperation Tony was lifted onboard Borneo Dream's dive boat and released into deep water off Tunku Abdul Rahman Park. Will this be the end of her story?
