Title: The dead Orca
Post by: kimmer on January 18, 2017, 01:43:33 PM
Here is a most fascinating post on a dead Orca that washed up on shore, and the resulting autopsy that was performed. It's not for those with a squeamish tummy, but it's truly educational, and photos taken by our Frances Taylor are incredible. I've been around a dead whale before, and had a hard time holding my lunch down let alone take photos (Sneakers took the photos and I have them somewhere). Anyhow, take a gander if you're so inclined.

But that was FUNNY!!! I love that video. I read a book from the main TV guy who was there, and his print accounting was hysterical. That whole event is still talked about here on the Oregon coast.
