A member of the Irish Whale and Dolphin Group trying to guide the minke whale into deeper waters last night after it became stranded in Larne harbour
A team from the Irish Whale and Dolphin Group has resumed its attempt to rescue a minke whale trapped in shallow water off the Co Antrim coast.
Rescuers are into their second day of trying to guide the whale into deeper waters.
The whale, thought to be injured, was spotted in shallow water close to Larne harbour at around 7am yesterday morning.
Boats and the public have been asked to stay away from Larne Lough as there are fears the noise will confuse the animal.
