Scientists have determined the cause of death of a sperm whale that washed up on shore in Oregon over the weekend. 

A necropsy was finished on Monday by scientists at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), who determined that the whale was hit by a vessel. NOAA spokesperson Michael Milstein said that the whale passed away after being hit by a ship as internal bleeding revealed that the whale had been struck. 

“The whale then apparently floated a while before washing ashore on Saturday,” Milstein told KOIN 6 News.

The Seaside Aquarium noted that the whale was not alive prior to when it arrived on the shore. The necropsy also showed that the whale was a 20-year-old male and was mostly healthy when it was hit. 

The aquarium noted that male sperm whales can live as long as sixty years and get up to 60 feet long. The site said that people can go see the whale, but they should avoid touching it to prevent the spread of diseases. 

“It’s a little alarming, but it’s nature, so it’s interesting,” Kay Schilliam, who visited the whale on the shore, told FOX12 Oregon.

“This is one of my most exciting days. I’ve dreamed about seeing a whale washed up since childhood,” Amber Limb, another person who went to see the whale, said. “I had to take a pause and take it all in before I started taking as many pictures as I could.”

“I thought about the line from Moby Dick. Captain Ahab says a dead whale or a stowed boat, well you have both right here,” Dan Limb, another sightseer said.

Over the weekend, Milstein said it was “40 to 50 feet long,” which is fully grown. 

“They are endangered, so they are protected,” he added. 

“It is a bit unusual to see a sperm whale here this time of year, so that’ll be one of the questions you know, we’re asking,” Milstein said. “Does this help us understand the population and distribution of sperm whales off the West Coast?”

This isn’t the first time that ocean wildlife has come up on the shores of the United States. Just recently, on Wednesday, a female orca came ashore on a beach in Florida. The orca was a female, measuring at 21 feet long. Authorities said the orca had probably died because of “various illnesses.” 

In New Jersey and New York, seven deceased whales washed up over the course of several weeks. Their deaths were also being investigated. 

As you probably know, your so-called moral betters are meeting in Davos, Switzerland, right now for the annual World Economic Forum. Amongst the issues they love to preen about are “gender inequality” and abuse against women in the workplace due to things like the mythical gender pay gap.

Hearing that, you might suspect this group of globalists would be doing something about the horrors of prostitution, sex trafficking, and more.

Wrong.

It seems  many of the participants of WEF — these global elites who profess to care for their fellow men and women — are clients of such “sex workers,” as the Left loves to call them.

A recent report revealed that each year more than 100 high-end prostitutes travel to the Swiss ski resort town for the annual conference.

Per The New York Post, “One prostitute who goes by the name ‘Liana’ told the German newspaper Bild that she frequently provides services to an American attendee at Davos who pays $750 per hour — or $2,500 to spend the whole night.”

“She added that she dresses in business attire in order to blend in with the crowd at the World Economic Forum gathering,” the paper noted.

She claimed she couldn’t mention who her client is, but stated he is an American who is one of the 2,700 regular attendees of the conference.

“Liana” isn’t alone. One investigation found that at least 100 prostitutes in recent years traveled to Davos to meet the demands of the WEF attendees.

So, in a sleepy town in Switzerland, a bunch of executives fly into town each year on private jets so they can preach to you about the “morality” we need to invoke in society.

Mind you, these are the same folks who tell you that you need to give up fossil fuels as you nearly freeze to death in order to fight climate change. They can scurry around on private jets, but you need to sacrifice.

Similarly, they claim we need laws to protect women — yet, they have no concern about coughing up thousands to fly in prostitutes for the week in Davos.

Now, it should be noted there are people fighting to pass laws to decriminalize sex work. There is some logic to that, by the way. Many women and men, forced into prostitution are victims and are not involved willingly.

I’ve explored that on my show, such as the time I interviewed Tim Ballard, who works with Operation Underground Railroad. That group regularly saves victims who were forced to do pornography.

So, the argument is that if you’re penalizing sex work, then sometimes you’re criminalizing a person that’s just been victimized and now is being revictimized by the court systems. It’s an interesting debate.

For now, though, I think we can all agree it’s more than a little hypocritical for these high-powered bosses at Davos to book escorts into their hotel rooms while they claim to care about women.
