A humpback whale was stuck in the Baltic Sea. A private group saved the animal. They moved the whale to the North Sea. This happened on May 2.
There is no sign of life for one week. Experts have little hope. They think the whale is dead. The GPS tracker shows no clear data.
The Ministry of the Environment is angry. The rescuers keep the data secret. Now the ministry checks legal steps. The rescuers must show the data.
There is also trouble about the rescue. One captain says: We saved the whale with care. Others say: The whale was hurt. They used ropes on the fin.
There was much trouble on the island Poel. The mayor Florian Lechner talks to the people. Many businesses had problems. Visitors made the fields and nature dirty.
Minister Till Backhaus wanted a monument for the whale. The people on the island do not want this. They need the money for other things. Politics fights about the case.
