Ftyer Posted June 6 Report Share Posted June 6 Saw a video of the dead whale outside of Shinnecock Inlet. Has anyone seen it/know where it is? In spite of the odor and general grossness, I’d love to see such a thing in person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Towing it out to sea could well result in it drifting ashore again, and it can present a hazard to small boats running at night. The one thing that you don't want to do is dynamite the dead whale. If you haven't seen the YouTube yet, gooigle it, and have a good laugh.

pequa11 Posted June 7 Report Share Posted June 7 With all the sonar pulsing (and later pile driving) from the wind farms that will save the world, you are likely to have many chances to see more dead whales. The money behind the wind farms insists its only a result of ship strikes, but what other year had 20 dead whales wash up in a brief period in this area?

DrBob Posted June 7 Report Share Posted June 7 C'mon, stop spreading those wind farm and dead whale rumors. WInd farms aren't new this year... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
