Local TV station KRON reports: Whale that washed up near Alameda likely killed by vessel strike
A dead gray whale that washed up off the shore of Crown Beach in Alameda earlier this month likely died due to a vessel strike, according to the California Academy of Sciences. The whale, which appeared off the coast of Alameda on the night of Saturday, April 20, was towed to Angel Island State Park where scientists performed a necropsy on the mammal.
On Tuesday, officials with the academy and the Marine Mammal Center announced the whale likely died “due to blunt force trauma from a vessel strike.”
Not much more to say about that, I think.
