Whale washes ashore near Leadbetter Point Chinook Observer LONG BEACH, Wash. — A mature whale washed ashore last week near Lead- better Point on the north- ern end of the Long Beach Peninsula. Researchers conducted a necropsy of the whale on Thursday . According to local resi- dent Nellie Hux, who pho- tographed the personnel from Portland State Uni- versity and the Casca- dia Research Cooperative, the older female probably washed up alive. There were no visible signs of trauma as some- times occurs when whales are struck by large ocean- going ships. Its stom- ach was empty and con- tained no plastic debris. There was no sign it had recently given birth or was lactating. “Just her time to go,” Hux said. Observing the nec- ropsy was “sad, interest- ing and very graphic … a great educational lesson for these students and me.” DEATH FIVE-DAY FORECAST FOR ASTORIA TONIGHT THURSDAY FRIDAY 55 45 46 ALMANAC Partly sunny 53 40 Mainly cloudy with a little rain Periods of rain Tillamook 46/53 Newport 46/52 Last Apr 19 New Apr 26 MEMORIALS Saturday, April 13 BARROW, May Dagny (Nygaard) — Celebration memorial at 1 p.m., Sons of Norway, 2910 U.S. Highway 101 N. in Gearhart.
