Mass whale stranding in Australia
The false killer whales, most between four and five meters (13 to 16 feet) long, beached themselves near the coastal town of Busselton, 200km (125 miles) south of the western city of Perth.
Many whales have beached themselves,and for some odd reason, no one knows.
Scientists do not know why these animals are doing this. They believe that the whales get lost and they did not know were to go. And they believe that the other whales eighther follow them or they try to help them. Click here for the article.

maybe its in their nature to beach themselves because i read in the article the its not uncommon for them to do that
They have alot of the beeched whales and that sux that they cant move them. they sayd they tryed with 100s of workers and none of them were able to move any and now they are wateing for the mashines. That is cool tho peope get to see tons of whales and can maybe pet them and stuff.
It is really sad that these whales are doing this. I read that a possible reason they are doing this is because they may have been trying to help other whales who might have just gotten stuck, and then they got stuck too. I think it is cool that they are helping out one another but its very sad they got stuck in the proccess. Hopefully the rescuers can help.
