Baby whale washes up on Oregon Coast


A baby whale washed ashore in Cannon Beach during New Year's weekend.

The city of Cannon Beach helped the Seaside Aquairum staff move the whale so that they could continue to collect data from the whale as the tide came in.

In one of the photographs you see Jason Hussa of the Seaside Aquarium measuring the blubber thickness and Dr. Debbie Duffield from PSU righting the data down.
