My question:
Has the species ID been confirmed? Unusual, an off-shore whale
species in a tidal estuary...

Officials find dead whale in Annapolis River after spring thaw
By THE CANADIAN PRESS
BRIDGETOWN _ Officials here found a dead whale this week in the
Annapolis River with the arrival of the spring thaw.
Bridgetown mayor Art Marshall says officials suspect it could be the
same whale that was spotted a couple of times in the river last fall.
They think it was a sperm whale calf that weighed between one and two
tonnes.
He says firefighters used their zodiac to pull the whale to an area
where it was loaded on a truck.
It was then taken away an buried.
It's not the first time a whale has made it through the tidal power
plant in Annapolis Royal and into the river, but officials believe it's
the first one that didn't make it back out.
