A 7.6-metre (25-foot) whale, wounded but alive, was discovered stranded on a beach in northern France on Monday, authorities said, with experts hoping the rising tide will help the cetacean back on its way. Helpers hoped instead that the rising tide would allow the animal to refloat and swim away, he said.
