Pilot whale stranding
The Dyer Island Conservation Trust (DICT) received a report on 28 January of a whale stranding near Pearly Beach. Dickie Chivell and Ralph Watson were sent out to investigate and arriving on-site it became clear this was no ordinary stranding. The whale was a longfinned Pilot whale (Globicephala melas) and it is not often seen on South Africa’s beaches.
