Pilot whales beached in New Zealand - 125 animals dead...
"You could see the pain and suffering in their eyes"...
The reasons for the repeated strandings of whales have not yet been clarified. Conservationist Steve Bolten said that the pilot whales of Coromandel were possibly ill or disturbed (perhaps strong sound waves from large ships disrupt the communication of whales, etc. - d.48) in their tracking system. That could have meant that the long up to 8.5 m animals fell into the shallow bays from which they finally didn't find out and stranded! - As elsewhere, the threat here is overfishing (see eg  seasons, closed areas, etc. - d.48). Responsible for this are industrial fishing - poaching and the many fish farms that pollute the waters - In addition, 500,000 salmons per year spread diseases (see variety of species, etc. - d.48) and possibly alter the genome of wild stocks...

Interpretation of dali48

The Coromandel Peninsula lies in the North Island of New Zealand. It is part of the Waikato Region and Thames-Coromandel District and extends 85 kilometres north from the western end of the Bay of Plenty, forming a natural barrier to protect the Hauraki Gulf and the Firth of Thames in the west from the Pacific Ocean to the east. At its broadest point, it is 40 kilometres wide. Almost the entire population lies on the narrow strips along the Hauraki Gulf and Bay of Plenty coasts. The country's biggest city, Auckland, lies on the far shore of the Hauraki Gulf, 55 kilometres to the west. The peninsula is clearly visible from the city in fine weather...
A small but unexplained fish kill of snapper occurred near the Coromandel Peninsula on 4 January 2010 - There has been speculation that the fish "were starving because of weather conditions" - but the Ministry of Fisheries is conducting its own investigation. The Ministry advised that it was not safe to eat the dead fish...
The area was formerly known largely for its hardrock gold mining and kauri industries - but is now a mecca for tourism, especially ecotourism... (Wikipedia)
