A third Humpback whale in about a month washed up at the Jersey Shore over the weekend, concerning both residents and conservationists.
Atlantic City officials say the 30-foot adult Humpback whale was discovered on the beach near South Mississippi Avenue Saturday, only a few blocks from where another whale washed ashore on Christmas weekend."It is ripe," said Cecile Herskovitz, who lives in Atlantic City. She said the smell isn't the only thing bothering her and her neighbors.
The city brought in scientists from the Atlantic Conservation Society from New York to perform the necropsy. Some protesters on the beach Sunday speculate an offshore wind turbine project may have something to do with this. Still, experts say it's too early to tell and it could take months to figure out why this whale died.
