NEW SOUTH WALES, AU - A whale called Bladerunner has delighted whale watchers by reappearing off the east coast - seven years after a boat propeller inflicted horrific injuries.
The humpback was injured by a boat propeller in 2001 and its convalescence in Sydney Harbour and the Manly area generated huge interest worldwide. At the time there were fears for Bladerunner's long-term health but these were dispelled at the weekend when it cruised off the coast on its northward migration.
Australian Whale Watching Charters director Jim Kelly said the distinctively scarred whale was an unusual sight and a hit with watchers.
