[MARMAM] beaked whale stranding in Poland

[Wojtek.Bachara]

Dear All,

On 16/11/2013 a 730cm male northern bottlenose whale was found dead and 
in an advanced state of decomposition near Uniescie town, Mielno, 
Koszalin, Zachodniopomorskie (West Pomeranian) Voivodeship.

This is a first record of the species in Poland.

Photos and video of this ziphiid can be found here:

I have over 300 strandings of this species.

Best wishes,
