An exhausted whale that was bleeding copious amounts of blood made a desperate attempt to get help by swimming into a French port. The sea water started turning red as the severely injured 52ft whale swam up next to the breakwater in the Saint-Cyprien port in southern France. The whale had a terrible gash around its blowhole that was bleeding constantly. Rescuers were desperate to try and help the animal but, tragically, nothing could be done to save it. Finally, in front of hundreds of onlookers, the whale breathed its last and sank to the bottom of the sea.
