A cruise ship sailed into a New York City port with a 13-metre dead whale across its bow, marine authorities said.
The whale, identified as an endangered sei whale, was caught on the ship’s bow when it arrived at the Port of Brooklyn on Saturday, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration fisheries spokesperson Andrea Gomez said.
A video posted to YouTube on Saturday appears to show the whale’s carcass hanging off the bow of the vessel, with the Statue of Liberty and the New York skyline in the background.
what do they do with the whale carcass? like, dispose of it, sure but how?
Flush it down a really big toilet
I’m on the other coast, but the last time a whale carcass was about to land here, they towed it way back out in the ocean and sharks were eating it the entire time they were towing it.
Blow it up with dynamite.
I was hoping for this response.
