Whale of a Tale: When Saving Lives Becomes a National Obsession A humpback whale known affectionately as "Timmy" or "Hope" has been found dead off the coast of Denmark, near Anholt island in the Kattegat.
The creature's body was discovered just two weeks after it had captured global attention with its dramatic rescue.
The massive effort to save Timmy involved transporting the whale 70 kilometers out into the North Sea on a barge.
