Mark Watkins, a 21-year-old fisherman, recounted the amazement they experienced seeing her from a distance. They had never seen anything like that, even though the sea is a second home for them, but curiosity could be more than fear, so they decided to approach to see what it was.
"When we approached we realized that it must be a dead whale, because of its bad smell"
Watkins told the newspaper West Australian that his stomach was full of gases , this explains why the characteristic appearance of the whale was completely distorted and that is why it looked more like a pink balloon.And it is not an isolated case, since that it is common in these animals that throughout their lives accumulate large amounts of gas, however, when they die and their bodies float to the surface, the sun's rays impact their abdomens, causing gases expand and swell in this way.

Humpback whale
Most whales are naturally large in size, but the volume they reach Under these circumstances it is dramatic , so on some occasions they explode when they die. No one would want to witness this bloody and smelly burst, of this we are sure.
Fortunately for fishermen, the animal began to deflate with the help of sharp dentures of sharks that had mouthfuls of what is presumed, it could be a humpback whale or a southern right, two types of common cetaceans of the Australian coast.
How would you have reacted if you witnessed something similar? Actually, fishermen found it "great" to see something like that.On the fetid scent of the dead whale...this is the part of the story they would rather forget.
