Another female was at risk of Orka pushing the calf of the dead child across the Sea of ​​Salsi

Pisces researchers say that the whale of the endangered southern residents of the southern residents pushed the deceased calf in the Salish Sea on Friday.

For some, the vision may raise the memories of a whale or another Likely In 2018, headlines are published all over the world.

In a post on social media about the last incident, the Pisces Research Center based in Washington State (CWR) said they were alerted to OCA-called J36-in the Rosario Strait, in Washington, about 45 km northeast of Victoria.

CWR says that the researchers found that the J36 are pushing a dead hurry on Friday afternoon, with a secret wire still connected. They say that the child’s whale itself is likely to be born during the previous three days.

“Based on the size of the calf, we appreciate that the calf was either the full -term or near the full term,” says the social media publication in the organization.

“It is not clear whether this is a birth or not if the calf has died shortly after birth.”

Michael Weiss, director of CWR research, said in an e -mail statement that researchers could not set any individual death for a specific factor in the ecosystem.

But Weiss said that the decrease in reproductive success in this category of population “is linked to high levels of pollutants – especially industrial chemicals known as dual -chlorine vinyl compounds – that prevent immune and reproductive function, as well as lack of prey, especially Chinook salmon, which prefers OCS prey.

The researchers previously said that the behavior in which Orca pushes a dead hurry is a clear sadness.

J35, another female from ORCA in Jarab J, paid the residue of the rabbi for 17 days in 2018, covering more than 1,600 km from the sea, while scientists called it “Sad Round”.

Then, in early 2025, it was monitored again Pay another dead hurry.

There is less than 75 of the remaining southern -resuming lethal whales. they A distinguished group of genetically from Orcas This is repeated Salish Sea near Vancouver and Vancouver, and feeds on salmon.

J36 belongs to “J Pod”, a group of southern dead whales. POD members are named from the message “J” and number.

CWR said that the researchers were at the scene on Friday, collecting more information about the J36 and her dead child, and they will provide more information when available.

A report issued earlier this year stated that the southern dead whales faced extinction if Ottawa did not increase urgently conservation measures.
