A humpback whale washed ashore near the West Coast Trail, sparking concern as it’s the fourth such death in B.C. this year—nearly matching the grim record from 2019. Ten grey whales have also died, hinting at deeper oceanic troubles. The Huu-ay-aht First Nation, who discovered the whale, is leading the investigation and urging boaters to stay clear amid rising whale sightings. While some experts link increased whale activity to abundant food, the grey whale deaths may signal starvation from depleted Alaskan feeding grounds. The First Nation is collaborating with Fisheries and Oceans to determine the cause and may seek to preserve the skeleton for cultural significance.
