TACOMA, WASH. (AP) – A 50-foot-long dead fin whale floats in to Tacoma’s Commencement Bay on Friday.
KIRO-TV reports a captain of a cargo ship says the endangered whale was impaled on the bow of his ship.
Researchers will perform a necropsy.
Fin whales are the second largest whales on Earth, behind blue whales.
