They should have Butchered this DEAD whale and scattered it remains in the ocean. They could have kept the skeletal system for a Museum display... Yes, it would have be a SMELLY JOB.. They could have used Gas masks for the UNSAVORY task of butchering a ROTTING whale Carcass..

@communistjesus

They actually did cut up the whale and bury it 20-30 feet under the sand on the beach. They plan to retrieve the bones years later...

Don't criticize someone's spelling when clearly you have issues yourself...I mean c'mon, it's "you're" not "your." Really not rocket science, people.

That's not a blue whale. Blue whales are much, much bigger.
