A humpback
whale 11 meters long was found dead in the jungle , far from its natural
habitat . Last Friday 22, a humpback whale was found dead in the middle of the
undergrowth of the forest of Pará , a Brazilian municipality located on the
island of Marajó , at the mouth of the Amazon River .
It was
reportedly a humpbackor gubarte , also called a humpback whale, approximately
11 meters long and 6 meters wide, whose natural habitat would be the saltwater
ocean. As a result, the Municipal Secretariat of Health, Sanitation and
Environment [Semma] has been carrying out an investigation to determine why the
marine animal was far from its natural habitat and in the winter season.
Biologists
from the NGO Bicho D’agua were also present at the site, who pointed out that
at first sight the immense animal had no visible wounds, so an autopsy is
required to determine the cause of death. Humpback whales are fed seasonally,
it is possible that not finding food will migrate to the beach and swallowing large
amounts of water will suffocate with plastics, being later his body pushed by
the waves of the sea into the jungle.
