A stranded humpback whale has died after dozens rushed to its rescue.  The whale swam aground about 250 miles south of Buenos Aires.   Rescuers had dug around the six-ton whale with heavy machinery.   In a desperate effort to keep it alive, they used a crane to lift and keep it hydrated.  Coastguards had even designed a special harness to pull the whale back to the ocean.   Report by Charlotte Brehaut.
