Sad news that the whale who had misguidedly travelled up the Thames has died.
It was interesting that the people trying to rescue him/her couldn't give it a sedative as it is a voluntary breather. This is idealwhen you're under water for a long time and need to hold your breath, but in this situation it was a liability as a sedative would have stopped or dimihsed its breathing.
That's true of so many situations when a strength in one cane become a weakness in another. We need to be able to stay true to ourselves, but also adapt to the environment that we find ourselves in.
