Something I find odd or maybe just reading too much into it……..

The whale ended up in Manasquan but the Post article quotes the Point Pleasant mayor who is FOR stopping the wind farm survey.

The Manasquan mayor who refuses to stop the project, is not interviewed or quoted? Why?

Thumbs down Re: Another dead whale

So that's 9 or 10 NJ dead whales since early Dec 2022 - the SAME time the Wind Farm Surveys started. That we know of - could be more. Not including RI, NY, DE, MD and VA.

Is NOAA that stupid to think these sonar surveys are not the cause?

Survey says: YES

I am not against wind farms - I am against the senseless killing of whales.

Unreal

TRUE science is empirical. The 7 step scientific method will provide the answer to this terrible event. Conjecture will not solve anything.

Agreed wholeheartedly. Although, the research should be done by independent scientists. Unfortunately, "science" is often hijacked and weaponized these days
