Episode Details

A mysterious dead whale washed up on a container ship in Commencement Bay, sparking an urgent investigation by scientists and wildlife experts. Early clues point to a rare fin whale, and decay suggests it may have been adrift for days. With seven of 15 recent stranding cases in the Salish Sea showing signs of ship strikes, authorities are racing to determine if this was another tragic collision — often without the vessel even realizing it. A necropsy is set to reveal more, while boaters are reminded: slow down, stay alert, and watch for other vessels — they might be your best clue that whales are nearby.
