Great Whale Rescue

Wed, 11/16/2022 - 8:00pm - 9:00pm

The moving story of two beluga whales released from captivity into an ocean sanctuary.

Little Grey and Little White are beluga whales living in captivity for the last ten years as entertainment attractions in China. New UK ownership of the park has brought about a commitment to return them to a life in the ocean. The documentary charts the nearly two-year process, battling challenging international logistics, a pandemic, illness and bad weather along the way. Great Whale Rescue airs Wednesday, November 16 at 8 p.m. on WXXI-TV.
