Stranded pilot whale dies

A short-finned pilot whale was spotted stranded in the Fripp Inlet, just next to the Fripp Island Bridge on Hunting Island on Dec. 6. Sadly, efforts to rescue the beached whale failed and he died. Scientists are still trying to determine why the whale beached itself. Photo courtesy of Pete Richards of the Fripp Island Audubon Club.
