Marine biologists are taking a closer look after the remains of a young minke whale washed ashore in New Jersey Friday — less than 24 hours after another dead whale was found floating off Staten Island.
On Thursday, the U.S. Coast Guard spotted a 16- to 18-foot-long whale “floating in the Lower Bay/Raritan Bay area.”
A tracking tag was planted on the carcass, which federal investigators with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration anticipate will land near Sandy Hook, NJ, within days. Once ashore, the deceased animal will be examined.

Despair when they realized they were in NY/NJ??
“The sonar used to build the wind turbines are screwing up the sea life’s navigation.”
Which brings us back to my argument against fetal sonography. How do they affect the growing fetus
Fetal ultrasounds are at least 100% unnecessary
Condolences.
Post 6.
Was Lizzo one of them?
What did they know about Hillary?
Call in Inspector Clouseau to investigate.
Yeah, whales fly into them all the time.
And 1000 people dead the aftermath osHelene...probably more..I would bet this lousy govt pays more attention to the whales.
Most likely these deaths were caused by the COVID vaccinations.
Nah, it was DEI.
My debit card didn’t work first time at the gas station today.
I’m blaming Global Warming.
Whales die. Everything dies. Is mankind guilty of causing these whales’ deaths? Sounds like BS. Let’s see what they come up with as the cause of death. I’m skeptical…

In 1977, the Federal Energy Research and Development Administration and the Department of Energy announced that Howard Knob (in Boone, NC) had been selected as the site for an experimental wind turbine, which was later built by General Electric in October 1978. The project was part of a surge in renewable energy research which began under then-President Jimmy Carter. The turbine, formally known as MOD-1, was managed by NASA and operated by Blue Ridge Electric Membership Corporation. It stood 131 feet (40 m) tall and had two 97-foot (30 m) long steel blades that rotated counterclockwise at 35 miles per hour (56 km/h). It was designed to power 300 to 500 average-sized homes, given wind speeds of 25 miles per hour (40 km/h).[2]
An unintended consequence of the new technology was a low-frequency "swish-swish" or "wooshing" noise that irritated locals. In March and April 1980, DOE and NASA engineers determined that a two-cycle-per-second sound was generated by wind blowing through the blades. Although the sound was twenty cycles below the range of human hearing, it caused windows and other objects to vibrate audibly.[3] A group of Appalachian State University students calling themselves "Wooshies" mocked the turbine project in a class video and gained the attention of local and regional newspapers. The turbine was also blamed for disrupting television signals. Some questioned whether it was working at all, since the blades did not seem to move very often. The turbine was dismantled in 1983.
More to the point, the sonars were used for the initial surveying of the bottom where the proposed building sites were to be located.
I seem to recall first hearing the stories of whale beachings in the 1980s. Even then, folks were speculating that USN submarines using their sonar were the cause. There are 3 USN sub pens on the east coast - King's Bay GA, Norfolk VA, and New Groton CT.
I was hoping it would be woopi, orca or Stacy Abrams
“Call in Inspector Clouseau to investigate.”
Or in this case, Inspector Cousteau.

Well, if your debit card worked the second time, then we must have had some fast global cooling. 😀👍
