It was determined that the whale was struck by a vessel. Michael Milstein, spokesperson for NOAA, stated that the whale died after it was struck by a ship. Internal bleeding showed that the whale had been injured.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cThe whale then apparently floated a while before washing ashore on Saturday,\u201d Milstein <a href=\"https:\/\/www.koin.com\/local\/oregon-coast\/scientists-determine-what-killed-washed-ashore-whale-on-oregon-coast\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">told<\/a> KOIN 6 News.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The Seaside Aquarium reported that the whale wasn&#8217;t alive when it arrived at the shore. A necropsy revealed that the whale was a male of 20 years old and was in good health when it arrived on shore.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">According to the aquarium, male sperm whales can live up to sixty years and grow up to 60 feet in length. To prevent spreading diseases, visitors should not touch the whales.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cIt\u2019s a little alarming, but it\u2019s nature, so it\u2019s interesting,\u201d Kay Schilliam told the story of Kay Schilliam who met the whale at the shore.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kptv.com\/2023\/01\/15\/sperm-whale-carcass-washes-ashore-fort-stevens-state-park\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">FOX12 Oregon.<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cThis is one of my most exciting days. I\u2019ve dreamed about seeing a whale washed up since childhood,\u201d Amber Limb, another person who saw the whale, stated. \u201cI had to take a pause and take it all in before I started taking as many pictures as I could.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI thought about the line from Moby Dick. Captain Ahab says a dead whale or a stowed boat, well you have both right here,\u201d Dan Limb, another sightseeker said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Milstein claimed that it was \u201c40 to 50 feet long,\u201d Which is fully grown.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cThey are endangered, so they are protected,\u201d He concluded.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cIt is a bit unusual to see a sperm whale here this time of year, so that\u2019ll be one of the questions you know, we\u2019re asking,\u201d Milstein said. \u201cDoes this help us understand the population and distribution of sperm whales off the West Coast?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">This isn\u2019t the first time that ocean wildlife has come up on the shores of the United States.
