Marine experts have given up hope of rescuing more than 150 false killer whales that became stranded on a remote beach on Australia’s island state of Tasmania.

A rare whale recently died after mysteriously attempting to strand itself on a beach in New Zealand. Locals noticed the animal — a strap-toothed whale — swimming “erratically” near East Clive Beach, located on the east coast of the North Island, according to Hawke’s Bay Today, a local newspaper.
