Image description

The crate containing Keiko the killer whale, who starred in the "Free Willy" movies, is loaded onto U.S. Air Force C-17 cargo plane at Newport Municipal Airport September 9. The 9,000-pound (4,100 kg) black-and-white whale, who was not medicated, appeared cooperative as he lay motionless in a nylon sling while handlers covered his back with protective balm. Then he was lifted by crane from his aquarium and into the custom-built container for the 14-hour trip by truck, plane and barge to his new bay pen in Iceland's Westman Islands. SG/CM/SB
