Liberated whale Gigi released off San Diego faces slim survival hope
Gigi the gray whale freed by Sea World and Navy researchers near Point Loma four miles offshore faces a doubtful future, with marine biologist Dr. Theodore Walker condemning the release as cruel and inadequate. He warns the whale, seven weeks old at capture, has never known deep water and may starve or fail to migrate. Recovery teams plan a new search within a 100 mile range as officials stress the release met government guidelines.
