Local fishermen and beachgoers have helped rescue a blue whale after it became stranded on a beach in Chile.
Along with members of the police and the navy, they were able to pull the whale back into deeper water after securing it with a large net.
The large mammal measured more than 20 metres in length and was stranded on a beach in the port city of Iquique.
Video footage shows rescuers using a large net to move the whale before a boat pulls it back out to sea.
