A fight to live

It is very disheartening to see that there are so many instances where we are trying to save nature and animals, help them proliferate. But here is an instance where the marine biologists are unable to do anything to help this orphaned starving calf. Why can not this calf be taken to a center where it can be taken care of? Is it too small?

On the contrary here we have a situation where the old are being given a better chance at life. They have the option which the whale calf doesn't have.

I do not say that its wrong to preserve life, but then this calf also has the wish to live. We take care of infants orphaned at birth. Why don't we have some mechanism through which such orphans can also be taken care of?
