"Even if they have been means to tempt a calf out in to open water, it would face a aloft predation vigour from sharks.''
NSW Premier Morris Iemma currently concluded a opinion for a 4.5m humpback was "bleak''.
"Our hearts have been violation with what's function with baby Colin,'' Mr Iemma said.
"It's seeking bleak, though each bid is being made.''
He pronounced zoo as well as veterinary scientists were operative to save Colin whilst sovereign Defence Minister Joel Fitzgibbon has offering to mobilize counterclaim force resources if required.
