This is the third dead sperm whale after the others found in Cefalu and Palermo, also in Sicily, a few days before. All the sperm whales are young: probably juveniles of around 7 years old. Veterinarians do not know yet the causes of death but all the plastic found in the stomach of the first sperm whale for sure compromised its capacity of feeding. So far, the possibility of entanglement in fishing gear has been excluded by the veterinarians, while the possible impact of viral diseases is still to be assessed.Locations:Europe-Italy-SicilyDate:23 May, 2019Credit:© BCA Università di PadovaDuration:41sAudio format:NaturalProduction Type :B-ROLLRestrictions:FOR GREENPEACE USE ONLY (ALL TYPES OF USE BUT NO FUNDRAISING!)
