| Location of Bunaken, where the sperm whale was found. |
There is little information on this story, and none in English, so we're providing what is known so far.
The carcass of a sperm whale has been found beached on the shore of Bunaken, an island off the coast of North Sulawesi.
1 Although it's possible that the whale was stranded before dying on the beach,
Kompas suggests that it has been dead for a week. Azalea, a local resident, reported finding it in the morning and hypothesised that it must have washed ashore the previous night, presumably already dead. The fact that it is dead now can be confirmed in the image below.
