Two Humpbacks Strand Near North Coast | San Jose News
Description
Two humpback whales washed ashore on North Coast beaches—Mad River and Centerville—already in advanced decomposition, leaving scientists with few clues about their deaths. Despite tissue sampling for domoic acid and collaboration with national experts, definitive causes remain elusive. While strandings are rare but expected events for this species during seasonal migrations, the advanced state of the carcasses severely limits investigation. If you spot a stranded whale, stay back, take photos if safe, and report it immediately—your help could make all the difference.
