Whale still playing off St Helen’s Island
The minke whale is still in the river off St Helen’s Island. Experts would like to see the cetacean make its way back downriver to its normal saltwater habitat, but there’s no known way to safely chivvy such an animal the 400 km it needs to travel.
And now a second minke whale has been spotted.

The English CBC article is saying maybe it’s the same whale.

I know it’s the Sicilian in me but I keep wanting to say “Minchia”!

Actually, the CBC article says it might be the same whale that was seen elsewhere earlier. So there probably are two whales in Montreal.
