“Wrong turn’: Humpback whale gets lost in German harbor – sailing instructor films 12-meter-long animal. Sailing instructor Jan Philip Leon from the Hanseatic Yacht School Glücksburg reported the sighting.

Nabu nature conservation association now assumes that it was a twelve-meter long humpback whale. The whale could have followed herring into the Baltic Sea, which it probably wanted to eat. The loud and polluted Baltic Sea stresses marine mammals, says Dagmar Struß.
