The severed dorsal fin of a transient whale (i.e., not one the whales we see regularly off San Juan Island) was found on a Washington beach recently.  For now the story is pretty mysterious, and we’re waiting for someone to come up with an explaination about what might have happened.  You can ready the whole bizarre story  here, for now; and we’ll update this post if we get more information.
