Donegal locals fight to save injured stranded baby porpoise

Brave efforts are under way to try and save an injured baby porpoise that became stranded in stormy seas in Co Donegal yesterday.

The mammal, which appears to have suffered an injury near its tail fin, was discovered along the shores of Lough Foyle near Moville town centre about 2.30pm.

Locals managed to get the three-foot creature back to sea but high winds and strong waves washed it back into a nearby tributary, the Bredagh river.
