Race to save whales after Australia's biggest ever beaching
A further two hundred whales have become stranded off Tasmania in what's become the biggest beaching in Australia's recent history - a total now of nearly five hundred whales. Sadly, hundreds have now died and rescuers are racing to free those still alive.
Tom Mountney is a salmon fisherman who works for Petuna Aquaculture and has been out in his boat as part of the rescue operation.
