Casablanca, Morocco (TMT)- The carcass of a white sperm whale has washed ashore dead yesterday near the Hassan II mosque in Casablanca.
The scene attracted many curious people and biologists who came to observe the dead mammal.
The causes of death remain undetermined, even though some people speculated that the mammal may have been hit by a cruise ship.
Other people also speculated that the animal may have suffocated after getting trapped in a fisher’s net, stressing that the rope around the mammal’s head may explain this thesis.
The mammal’s carcass was found in a decomposition state.
