Dying dolphins and whales were discovered about seven am local time. The environmentalists, veterinarians, and help them try to save marine mammals, but almost 60 of them have already died. Animals severely wounded, and veterinarians are trying to give them at least minimal assistance before release into the ocean.
Over the past month, this is the second time such a mass suicide. First March on the coast of the island King jumped 194 whale and dolphin. Then managed to save about 54 whales and dolphins, five-afalin.
Marine mammals are often discarded on the shore in the vicinity of Australia and Tasmania. The exact cause of this phenomenon is unknown. As the factors that encourage the whales and dolphins in the suicide, called the pollution of ocean waters, magnetic storms, and even moon phases. In recent years, many experts are inclined to conclude that the strange behavior of animals is due to sonar, which are used warships during exercises.
