WHALE Relocation Effort Is UnsuccessfulAN attempt to guide several northern bottlenose whales out of the Gareloch and down the Clyde was unsuccessful.
Marine experts assembled a flotilla of small boats on Thursday and tried a number of times to divert the creatures out into the firth.
The British Divers Marine Life Rescue came up with the plan over fears the whales will be affected by underwater sounds during ship movements for a major navy exercise.
There are currently no plans to try again.
