Sorry cant get my head around with the high exposure that there are "tugs" waiting in the wings to tow or cut / gas whales on site at the WF locations or anywhere else. IF true than all pro wind , anti wind, media, politicians and save the whales groups need to rethink their directive and job description.

We live in a world of drones, planes, social media whistle blowers so very hard to believe this could happen without massive proof.

Bottom Line most reasonable people and there are many in this thread are just looking for the truth and some definitive answers to the impacts now and going forward which is very much a work in progress.

Having said that I agree with the lack of transparency to the general public on the mammal deaths. One article says 6 of the 8 dolphins were rescued and 2 died yet another says all 8 died? Granted does NOT explain why a pod of 8 were stranded in the first place!

As far as Texas ( largest WF in the USA), I was going to say in the Union but went with UNITED STATES as many have lost sight of that and seem willing to repeat the past.

Germany going to coal and France etc. Not many facts on these statements

FACTS FROM MMCS WHO ORCHESTRATED THE RESCUE...

UPDATE 3/21/23 at 3:20pm: The remaining six dolphins were assessed by our veterinarian and their conditions were rapidly deteriorating. The decision was made to humanely euthanize the dolphins to prevent further suffering, as returning them to the ocean would have only prolonged their inevitable death. All eight dolphins have been transported to the NJ State Lab for immediate necropsies. We share in the public's sorrow for these beautiful animals, and hope that the necropsies will help us understand the reason for their stranding.
The Marine Mammal Stranding Center staff and veterinarian is currently on scene responding to a mass stranding event in Sea Isle City. A pod of eight Common dolphins has stranded, two of which have died at the time of this post. MMSC staff is being assisted by the Sea Isle City Police, Fire, EMS and Public Works Departments. We ask that the public please give the team space to do their work. We will provide updates when we have more information available, and our team is back from the scene. Thank you.
