Nigerians Descend On Dead Whale Washed Ashore Beach In Rivers

A gargantuan  whale which washed up the shores of Ikuru town Atlantic beach in Andoni Rivers state earlier this week was descended upon and  shared by residents around the area.
The incident saw natives of the community trooping out in their numbers to get a chunk of the rare aquatic mammal.

The residents also shared some photos of their Whale  chunks including the smoked one below:

Similarly in September 2016, a Dead Whale was washed ashore  a beach in Akwa Ibom state – off the Atlantic Ocean. The dead whale was found by villagers on September 15, morning, a biodiversity conservationist from the University of Uyo, Edem Eniang said.

He said residents of Okpo Ita in Ibeno local government area of the state had already started cutting some body parts of the 16 meters long whale for use as meat. “I observed that something close to four meters was missing,” Eniang said.

Question is, how healthy is it to eat a dead animal that no one knows how long it’s been dead for???
