Beaked whale update in Sweden/Denmark

Update: Two Common Spitsnuit dolphins (Mesoplodon bidens) also known as Sowerby Beaked whales. On August Friday 8, two stranded beaked whales were found at Åsa in Halland, Sweden. The Coast Guard helped the whales out into deeper water, but on Sunday, 10, one of the whales was found dead in Frillesås near Kungsbacka, to the north. The other was also found dead, on Läsö Island in Denmark, which is between Sweden and Denmark, on the same day. The ones found in Halland were 3.5 and 2.75 meters long, respectively.
