We Saved a Whale Questions & Answers
Question 1: Where was the whale-calf stuck? How did it get stuck there?
Answer: The whale-calf was stuck in the tall, crooked rocks on the beach. It had been trapped the previous night when the tide went out.
Question 2: What efforts did the people and children make to save the whale-calf? Did they succeed?
Answer: The teachers gathered the children and rushed to the spot. The parents, drivers and bus conductors joined in too. The children fetched mugs, buckets, and spare tyres, bedsheets – anything they could find in the bus. They ran to the sea, filled them with water. Then they ran back to the calf and threw the water over it. Children covered the calf with wet clothes. Many children dug pit around the calf to get it filled with water so that the calf could be easily removed. Two hours went by and the tide filled the pit with water.
