The whale was found in the vicinity of Beach Access 40 off South Fletcher Avenue, near Bill Melton Road. Representatives from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration led a group that includ- ed the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Hubbs Seaworld Research Institute, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, the Georgia Aquarium, Harbor Branch at Florida Atlantic University and the University of North Florida. The 31-foot-long juvenile whale is male and estimated to be between 4 and 10 years old. On average, hump- back whales live to be about 50 years old. Unlike other species of whales that travel in pods, humpbacks tend to be somewhat solitary or travel with just one other whale. There have been a few UME’s involving whales along the Atlantic coast in the past several months, which makes this whale of particular interest to many research organizations. The first thing researchers do in CINDY JACKSON/NEWS-LEADER these cases is investigate the carcass A dead humpback whale that washed up in Fernandina Beach on Sunday will be buried “plenty deep” on the beach, according to a representative from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
