A whale has washed up on a beach in East Lothian for the second time in less than a month.East Lothian Council cordoned off the area before the carcass was lifted onto a trailer.
Further north, a dead humpback whale was found on a sand bank at Loch Fleet nature reserve in Sutherland on Friday.An expert at the Scottish Marine Animal Stranding Scheme said initial examinations suggested the juvenile female had died after becoming tangled in creel lines. Stranded whales longer than 25ft are considered "royal fish", with the Scottish government having first claim on those found dead or stranded on the shoreline north of the border on behalf of the Crown.
