Robert Marc Lehmann

Robert Marc Lehmann is a biologist who is currently involved in the efforts to rescue a humpback whale stranded off the coast of Timmendorfer Strand in the Baltic Sea. He approached the stranded whale before the rescue attempt began, which resulted in the whale reacting with strong movements. The whale is stuck on a sandbank, and experts are attempting to free it by digging a 50-meter long, 6-meter wide, and 1.20-meter deep trench in front of the whale's head. The rescue operation is challenging due to wind and currents. The whale's well-being is a concern, as the rescue attempts, including the trench digging, pose potential risks to the animal. Lehmann's role highlights the involvement of biological expertise in marine animal rescue operations.
