Marine animal group trying to find out what killed humpback whale found in Halifax Harbour.
Members of a marine animal group are attempting to get closer to the carcass of a humpback whale in Halifax Harbour in order to find out why the animal died.
The Marine Animal Response Society (MARS), a group that responds to incidents of dead and distressed marine animals in the Maritime provinces, said they were contacted Thursday evening about the floating whale.
A mariner had spotted the carcass — a small, male humpback — in the outer approaches of Halifax Harbour.
It’s estimated the animal is about 10 m in length.

“With these animals, we really need to understand what happened to them,” Tonya Wimmer, the executive director of MARS, told Global News on Sunday.
“There’s a huge concern that human activity played a role in the deaths of these animals.”

Wimmer said at this point, however, there is no indication what killed this particular whale and that’s why a performing a necropsy is so vital.
