Reply to comment by barristadept in 8th Dead Whale washes up on NY/NJ coastline by grr5000
Must look like a clown world to a clown.
Half of the whales were dead by being struck. Other half was likely starvation.

It should be easy to make that determination then. Halt the whale killing sonar and determine the cause before proceeding. It's hilarious that democrats would be bitching for the same thing if we were drilling for oil. But it's wind so a few whales deaths is worth it. Clown world.

Explain why this is happening now? There were far more whales around the NY Bight all summer long with even higher boat traffic. Why now? People choose to bury their heads in the sand only when it suits their cause.

>>“We can say that these active acoustic systems that are used during these surveys are commonly used around the world,” said Ben Laws, deputy chief for NOAA’s Permits and Conservation Division, and NOAA Fisheries Office of Protected Resources, during a press conference earlier this month. “There are no historical stranding events that have been associated with use of systems like these.”

>Whale death spikes are not a new phenomenon. According to NOAA, there have been 178 unusual mortalities since 2016. Almost half of the necropsied whales were hit by vessels, while the remaining results are inconclusive. Sometimes the bodies are too decomposed to determine a cause of death, experts say.
Reidenberg said it’s possible that because water quality has improved, the fish whales eat are more abundant. That means whales are hanging around port areas with high boat traffic for longer periods, putting them at greater risk of getting hit by a ship.
Dumbass conservatives obsessed with conspiracies.

This directly contradicts your earlier claim that they died from starvation.
