Re: Whale in london?!
it has been stated that they believe it died due to the weight of it's body crushing it's organs, so it sounds like the rescue attempt may have actually led to it's demise :(

Re: Whale in london?!
The poor thing should have been left to die in peace. Sometimes people interfere with nature when they really don't understand what is happening and why and they just make matters worse. I realise people probably had the best of intentions but instead of being able to die quietly and peacefully this poor creature was tormented and suffered needlessly in its final hours.

Re: Whale in london?!
We know that this whale was very sick before it died and possibly when it swam up river; if so, I wonder if it vomited? I bet it did. I am very tempted to go and have a wonder along the local foreshore this evening and see what I can find. If it's any of this stuff (link below) then I could well be rich.

One would hope that a Human Being would have been given this hope. Can't say for sure, but feel that it was ensured that this creature's last journey was pain free. Hope so anyway. |
Re: Whale in london?!
On MSN Today it says the whale died of dehydration. Ah well. I knew they should of left it in the water.

Re: Whale in london?!
Any death is sad, but when it happens all over the world thousands of times a day, one hundred thousand pounds does seem a lot to spend on a poor creature that may have been dieing anyway.

Re: Whale in london?!
They should have shot it as soon as it was beached and sold the body to Billingsgate Fish Market. There are about 50,000 Japanese living in London & they would have paid top whack prices for a slice of Whale belly.
Instead we had a weekend of sanctimonious, sentimental drivel which took over the entire news channels. Not only that, but every liberal, animal-loving, save-the-whale loonatic (with their family of ill-beheaved brats) from south-east England decided to decend on my local riverside hostelry on saturday afternoon. Their purpose? To yell and shout at this comatose fish. Would you go to hospital and do the same to a dying relative? No! But who can understand the logic of these madmen? I do know that my quiet drinks were ruined by this mob. |
