Twocoda Posted April 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 my thoughts exactly ....im thinking it will be a little more potent than a few old salmon on the side of the bank...i wonder if they will explode it with dynamite like they do in the good ole USA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twocoda Posted April 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 I cant understand why they dont just pull it back out to sea and detonate it http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/newfoundland-labrador/rotting-whale-s-stench-bloating-worry-trout-river-1.2624297?cmp=fbtl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerritt Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 (edited) I was listening to an official last night on cbc radio... The problem is the whale is beached above the high tide line, it will require an excavator to push the whale off the rocks. It will also require a large ship, the whale is estimated at 180 tonnes, this is a small community that survives on some tourist dollars, they don't have the means or the budget to handle something like this.... Quite the quandary.... Only thing I can think of is federal fisheries or a provincial body to step in and offer funding.... People are climbing this mammal, taking pics etc.. I don't like most people. G Edited April 29, 2014 by Gerritt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twocoda Posted April 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Ministry of natural resources do not mind making money off of something they do not own....so they should step up to the plate and take care of this ....remind me why people pay taxes again????? http://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/newfoundlanders-fear-rotting-whale-carcasses-could-soon-explode-1.1797195 you'll get a bang out of this one.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dCsMNurn3bQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
