Police boat monitoring grounded whale in Wismar Bay
On March 29, 2026, the 'Uecker' was monitoring the humpback whale, which had got stuck again in the Wismar Bay. Environmentalists and emergency services were considering a rescue operation for the whale. One possible method was to try to free it by giving it a stimulating impulse. Experts from Greenpeace, the German Oceanographic Museum, and the Institute for Terrestrial and Aquatic Wildlife Research were on site with inflatable boats. The whale was resting only a few hundred meters from the mainland. The deep shipping channel was not far away. However, the animal was very weak, and its skin was extremely damaged. Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania's Environment Minister Till Backhaus (SPD) assessed the situation from the police boat.
