MONDAY, JULY 9, 2001 A team of researchers from the National Marine Fisheries Service will make another attempt this week to rescue an endangered right whale caught in fishing line off the coast of Massachusetts. Attempts to free the whale, which has developed an infection from the fishing line, have so far failed. Unless it is freed, scientists say it will die. There are about 300 known right whales in the world. Canadian officials are asking fishermen in Nova Scotia to limit activity as whales make their way to feed on plankton in the area. Get the Story:
