Lilly the whale came into Dana Point harbor caught in Mexican fishing lines. A rescue crew removed the lines but it died 2 days later.

  • we were vacationing in dana point when this happened.. and we went try go c it but then it died :(

  • Andrea that is a very good video. You are very good a documenting with Video. I am very proud of you. So sad to see such a beautiful creature die of the hands of the Mexicans net.

  • I so much hoped Lily would have made it. She probably came from La Paz BCS and was on her way to Alaska.

    I lived in La Paz, and whale watching is one of the preferred activities for the tourists there.

    Lily, I'm so sorry you had to suffer so much just because of the Mexicans throwing their nets out .

    They also catch dolphins in those nets, which they are not supposed to.

    Yes, they do throw them back into the waters, but the animals DIE anyway. Some of shock, some are injured.
