Food from the gods, Nigerian locals feast on whale

A couple of hours ago I updated the Africa Airburst stranding alert for the June 1st airburst in the Atlantic. Not exactly where I thought a stranding would occur, and I hope it isn't a bad omen for what comes next. See June 5th post titled: Airburst in Equatorial South Atlantic - Updated 20240621

2024, June 19. Nigeria, Bayelsa, Gulf of Guinea. Okpoma, Brass Local Government Area. Residents from Twon-Brass, Odioma, Fish Town and Sangana villages used machetes, hawk shaws and axes to butcher the dead animal. The whale measured about 15 meters long, five meters wide and three meters high.

Also: 2024, June 20. USA, Delaware Bay near New Jersey. A dead large humpback whale was found floating. The Marine Mammal Stranding Center and the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration are investigating.
