It is not quite normal for us here to be able to see really big fishes and it is also not normal to see dead ones too... yesterday, everyone was buzzing about the news that a dead whale was found in our shore, here in the city. Everyone was surprised, wondering how the whale got into the vicinity and why it died... i just saw pictures and there were no other details. It is sad because such creatures are amazing and it breaks my heart to see them dead. Saw the news too last night and saw that a sperm whale was also found in La Union in Luzon..

This sometimes happen maybe because the whale is really sick and that with such strong waves at sea, it may have carried him to shore.

I have heard this in the news and sad to say, one probable cause is pollution and global warming, we all have to do something before it's too late. Whales are endangered species and we should take care of them because they play a big part in maintaining a healthy ecosystem.

This will be a big shocking news for me. I don't know why some whales will kill themselves like this way. Even if people want to save the whales and put them into the ocean. Soon they will come back to the beach again. The reason seems to be unknown. I wonder whether it has something to do with the pollution.

i do not think the whale kill themselves ... i believe something happened to them in the ocean and was washed ashore to Philippine seas.. probably it met an accident or some pouchers tried to kill them.

Wooh, that's sad. Whales are one of the sweetest. They look amazing, and could be very friend. What did they do when they found it?
