A 35-foot whale was washed up on the beach in Mandarmani in West Bengal, 150 km from Kolkata. The huge whale was found on the morning of June 29 and locals claim it is a first such incident in the area. The whale's giant head lay in a pool of blood as locals gathered on the beach to see the tragic incident. Why the blood and why there appear to be some marks of injury on the whale’s tail are not clear yet. Officials of the East Midnapore district rushed to the spot. Officials of the forest and wildlife and fisheries departments also reached the location. The huge whale apparently seemed to be of Sei whale species. Mandarmani is a popular tourist destination on the Bay of Bengal sea, close to Digha, another tourist location in Bengal. Both places are now shut to tourists because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
