Moko The Dolphin Saves Whales!

Let's now take a break from crazy political stuff and rising petrol prices. In New Zealand, a bottlenose dolphin named Moko saved two stranded sperm whales, a mother and her calf from possible death. Human rescue workers tried to free the whales but the mammals kept getting stuck again and again.
Then along came Moko, who approached the whales and appeared to lead them as they swam 200 yards (180 meters) along the beach and through a channel out to the open sea.
