Two men on jet skis off the Gold Coast rescue a humpback whale that is entangled in rope, according to reports from PerthNow and The West Australian. The men, identified as Ryan Cavanah and Luke Esson, are described as being out on the water when they notice the whale in distress. They intervene to free the animal from the entangling rope and help it continue away from the immediate danger. Both outlets characterize the incident as a spontaneous wildlife rescue carried out by local “mates” while jet skiing. The coverage focuses on the whale’s entanglement and the men’s efforts to remove the rope and alleviate the situation. No further details are provided in the excerpts about the length of the rescue, where exactly it occurred along the coast, or whether wildlife authorities were contacted afterward. Both sources present the rescue as successful, emphasizing the men’s role in helping an injured marine mammal.
