What actions are being taken to investigate the dolphin stranding in Tasmania?

The response team is conducting comprehensive post-mortem investigations and sampling of deceased animals to determine the cause behind the stranding of over 150 false killer whales in Tasmania. This unusual event, the first of its kind in 50 years for the region, has prompted marine experts and veterinarians to gather on-site for analysis. State Wildlife Officer Brendan Clark noted that refloating the approximately 90 surviving dolphins presents significant challenges due to their substantial weight. He explained that these are migratory animals that typically roam open waters globally, but currently there is no information about why they became stranded on this remote beach.
