Time running out for beluga whale stranded in river Seine, say marine groups

Marine groups are weighing up plans to return the Beluga whale back into open sea nearly a week after it was first spotted in the river Seine. AP

A team of vets and marine experts on Sunday conceded they were running out of options in the fight to save a malnourished beluga whale that has swum up the river Seine.

The whale was first spotted on Tuesday in the river that runs through Paris to the English Channel.
