THE TRUTH ABOUT WHY WHALES MASS STRAND

(Author's Note:  Read the right column t o better understand this concept . ) AS PREDICTED ONE MONTH AGO, ON 14 OCTOBER 2012, FIFTY-ONE PILOT WHALES WERE WASHED INTO THE SAND AT EAST CAPE, NORTH ISLAND, NEW ZEALAND! This beaching was caused by a cluster of eight earthquakes: PDE-Q 2012 08 30 084312.83 -50.42 114.90 10 4.2 mbGS PDE-Q 2012 08 30 105358.42 -50.21 114.11 10 5.4 MwGCMT PDE-Q 2012 08 30 105854.15 -50.26 114.25 10 4.6 mbGS PDE-Q 2012 08 30 121843.09 -50.14 114.08 10 5.6 MwGCMT PDE-Q 2012 08 30 152542.01 -50.30 114.11 10 4.5 mbGS PDE-Q 2012 08 30 152717.51 -50.40 114.10   9 4.8 mbGS PDE-Q 2012 08 30 190304.85 -50.35 114.19 10 4.9 mbGS PDE-Q 2012 08 30 190424.31 -50.42 114.40 10 4.9 mbGS PDE-Q 2012 08 31 043745.05 -50.24 114.32 10 4.2 mbGS My alert service informed me only about the two linked events. I knew nothing about the other six until after the beachin g on 14 October 2012. My basic concept is that shallow earthquakes cause the rocky bottom to shift about v

On 31 December 2011, a whale mother and male calf were found dead on Opape Beach in the Bay of Plenty at the north end New Zealand's North Island. The seagulls had already pecked their eyes out by the time the park rangers arrive d . Although clearly in the beaked whale family—the most mysterious marine mammal family—scientists thought the pair were relatively well-known Gray's beaked whales. That is until DNA findings told a shocking story: the mother and calf were actually spade-toothed beaked whales ( Mesoplodon traversii ), a species no one had ever seen before. Scientists have known of the spade-toothed beaked whale for over 140 years. Scientifically known as Mesoplodon traversii , the species was named after Henry H. Travers, a New Zealand naturalist who collected a partial jawbone that was found on  Pitt Island  in 1872.  Pitt Island is part of the Chatham Islands group situated about 800 miles downstream from the Bay of Plenty.A damaged
