What is known about the false killer whale stranding in Tasmania?

A mass stranding of false killer whales occurred on an isolated beach in Tasmania's northwest coast, approximately 400 km from the state capital Hobart. This marks the first such incident involving this species in Tasmania in 50 years, with over 150 of these dolphins washing ashore. Marine experts note that these impressive marine mammals can grow up to 20 feet long and weigh as much as 1,361 kilograms. Scientists are currently examining the deceased animals to determine potential causes for this unusual stranding event.
