Dozens of Whales Found Dead
The discovery of the deceased marine mammals has prompted an urgent investigation into the health of the Pacific whale population.
Scientists noted that many of the whales appeared malnourished, suggesting they are struggling to find enough nutrients in their typical feeding grounds.
Climate change and shifting ocean currents are being examined as potential drivers of the food shortage.
This 'unusual mortality event' has led to calls for greater protection of marine habitats and more robust monitoring of whale migration patterns.
