TOKYO (Reuters) - A Japanese fisherman drowned on Tuesday after a whale he was trying to rescue capsized his small fishing boat, a coastguard official said.
Three fishermen tried to rescue the sperm whale, about 10-meter (yard) long, after it strayed into a bay off the southwestern island of Shikoku, about 800 km (500 miles) southwest of Tokyo. But the panicked creature turned on them and struck the vessel, the coastguard official said. A 58-year-old fisherman drowned while two other fishermen were rescued, he added. Goosey's Gabbings...
