Anxious to save two injured wayward whales, a team of marine rescuers on Thursday played recorded humpback songs, hoping to lure the stranded mammals from the Sacramento River back to the sea.
The humpbacks, believed to be an adult female and her calf, were first spotted in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta on Sunday and have since meandered almost 90 miles upriver from their natural habitat in the Pacific Ocean along Northern California.

This has been on the news quite a bit lately but last I heard, the whales have still not been returned to the sea.
