Beaching of Whales in N.C. may be linked to Navy Tests
May be linked? At least 37? Yeah right, this happened before off the coast of Bermuda when the Navy was conducting similar tests....read on to this pathetic story

WASHINGTON - At least 37 whales beached themselves and died along the North Carolina shore earlier this month soon after Navy vessels on a deep-water training mission off the coast used powerful sonar as part of the exercise.

Although the Navy says that any connection between the strandings and its active sonar is "unlikely" - because the underwater detection system was used more than 200 miles from where the whales washed up - it is cooperating with other federal agencies investigating a possible link.

Here's a LINK to the Bermuda story, there's a vid and some pics, kind of shocking, slanted a bit? maybe as it is an environmental group site. But hey, I think we have a problem here and our Navy's killing whales when it doesn't have to.
