Hundreds of volunteers helped rescue five whales stranded on a Florida beach on Monday.  The Coast Guard and Clearwater Marine Aquarium led the rescue efforts, local media reported. Footage showed the whales in shallow water under tents put up to shade them from the sun and prevent sunburn.  Three of the whales were loaded into boats to be released back into the Gulf of Mexico and two were taken by truck to receive treatment, NBC said.
