Divers who battled in vain to save a whale that became stranded in the River Thames a year ago are to practice rescue techniques in Loch Ness.

A two tonne inflatable rubber mock-up of a pilot whale and life-size replicas of a seal and dolphin will be used during the exercise at Dores [on the banks of Loch Ness].
