  1. Aroon Melane:

    We heard there was a beached killer whale so we went to go find it. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration gave permission to keep the orca wet and protected from animals until they could arrive, we were working on getting a hose and pump to work. In the meantime, we used buckets to keep the orca wet. The orca started getting more lively after we put water on it.
