Dead whale found on Jurby beach

A dead Whale has washed up on Jurby beach.

Manx Whale and Dolphin Watch took to social media to confirm the news earlier today.

The charity says it's the first time a long finned pilot Whale has stranded on the Island and it washed in on yesterday's high tide.

An autopsy was conducted and various samples collected, they'll now be sent off for analysis in the UK - however there are no initial obvious causes of death.
