In a  mammoth effort which took some 07 hours, they managed to assist the 38  foot Fin Whale to swim back to deep waters off the Dutch Bay after  freeing it from the entangled fishing net which had hindered its free  movement.   The whale had been first sighted by the naval  personnel deployed on coastal protection. It had been struggling in  shallow waters with injuries to its fin and abdomen areas. Alerted naval  personnel rushed in and pumped water helping it to breath and guiding  it to refloat. They felt overjoyed to watch the magnificent Whale,  nicknamed "The Greyhound of the Sea" by whale lovers for its great speed  and slender build, regaining its strength and heading home.    As part of its social responsibility projects, the Navy assists whale  conservation. It has ventured into organizing whale watching cruisers  with a view to raise public awareness on the endangered world's largest  animal and to assist the country's ongoing tourism promotion drives  targeted at whale watching enthusiasts worldwide.[CODE]www.navy.lk[/CODE]</blockquote>
