Decoding the mysterious deaths of whales and dolphins

(Baonghean.vn) - In recent years, the world has witnessed the collective and individual deaths of whales and dolphins. In Vietnam in general, and Nghe An in particular, this is not a rare occurrence. Let's try to find the answer to this phenomenon.

Many answers have been given after the mysterious deaths of whales and dolphins.

It was previously believed that changes in seawater and poor health caused the mass death of these two fish species, but in reality there are many other causes.

Wrong direction

Navigation is an inborn instinct in fish. However, whales and dolphins sometimes get it wrong.

More than 60 pilot whales died in a mass stranding on a remote beach in New Zealand in November 2011. Large strandings involving these whales occur about twice a year. Scientists have not yet explained what causes mass strandings, but they speculate that the strandings occur when the whales’ navigational abilities are disrupted in shallow water.

Many studies have shown that military exercises at sea by countries and the use of high-frequency ultrasound waves have made the positioning ability of dolphins and whales less accurate.

Not only that, changing water temperatures or increasing ocean pollution levels also cause these two animal species to behave increasingly abnormally.

Are mass suicides a mysterious message from the ocean?

Although many causes such as illness, injury, and misdirection have been given, many still believe that this is related to the "curse" of the ocean.

On October 7, 2013, more than 20 long-finned pilot whales washed up on Manon Beach in Galicia, Spain. Eleven of the whales died upon reaching the shore, and the others died later, despite rescue efforts by police, environmentalists, and Galician mammal researchers. Whales are highly social animals. Some biologists have theorized that if a leader whale becomes ill and washes up on a beach, the other whales in the group will follow and become stranded. Photo: Daily Mail.

Even many spiritualists believe that the mass death of dolphins and whales is the anger of the ocean, a message threatening human life.

Do whales and dolphins suffer from depression?

If humans can suffer from depression, many believe that dolphins and whales can also suffer from this strange disease. It may be a suitable explanation for why such large and powerful animals die en masse.

However, many people ask the opposite question: why are thousands of whales sick and not just a few? Or are they all suffering from behavioral disorders?

Are aliens controlling dolphins and whales?

Finding an answer to the deaths of these two fish species will probably still be a long way off because many scientists believe that aliens are using some kind of power to control whales and dolphins.

New Zealand has one of the highest rates of whale strandings in the world. The country regularly sees large pods of whales stranded in coastal areas, mainly during the summer when whales migrate from the Antarctic seas to the area. According to statistics, since 1940, a total of more than 5,000 dolphins and whales have stranded on beaches around New Zealand. In 2007, a pod of 101 whales also stranded on the same beach.

Accordingly, they believe that aliens are using a special frequency to force dolphins and whales to act according to them. And the collective death of the fish is the aliens' failed experiment in controlling whales./.
