Here's a wild one: A 20-foot mink whale made its way into a shallow bay in New Jersey on Saturday, started freaking out, and then this happened:
VIDEO AT LINK.................
The whale is now dead.
A local nonprofit posted on Facebook:
Poor whale made its way into this bay and seems to have been freaking out with the shallow water:
The boaters weren't antagonizing the whale at all. Rather, the amount of stress put on the whale in that shallow water led to the collision. The person who fell overboard wasn't reported as injured, and as you can see in the video they seems to be standing steadily in three feet of water.
The whale was scheduled to be towed to a nearby state park for a necropsy this morning.

I actually considered raising minks back in the late 70’s early 80’s. But that was when the PETA people started their crap against wearing real fur, so I decided not to get into that business....But it seems that there may be a revival coming...........

Maybe they will settle for a Maytag repairman.

Real fur is making a comeback after years of exile: ‘You’ll see it on the runway again’You may not have noticed ( in FL) but down coats have exploded, almost every single person wears one in the Northeast.
