There's a whale rescue going on off Cudjoe Key this morning. 16 pilot whales were reported stranded at low tide around 7:00 last night. Vet. Doug Mader of Marathon, and lots of volunteers went out to help rescue, but most of the whales will probably not survive. They quickly set up a holding pen in deeper water to tend to the few that will make it and probably will be out there all day today, at least. They took a wrong turn? got mixed up about the tides? Who knows, but the last time there was a pilot whale stranding down here, it was very close to the same spot, back in 2003 when 27 whales were stranded.
