Fox News
A whale stuck in shark nets off the Gold Coast of Australia was freed Monday by rescuers. Whale entanglement in fishing gear is a problem around the world.
The station spoke with SeaWorld's head of marine sciences, Wayne Phillips, who told ABC the whale appeared to be sick, was "full of lice" and had an abscess on its back.
Phillips said rescue crews were called at about 6:30 a.m. local time.
