A 10-metre whale carcass has washed ashore at a popular beach in Perth, leaving authorities to determine how to deal with the rotting remains. Reports say the carcass is causing a strong smell and has created a local cleanup issue.
Local outlets describe the situation as a potential cost burden for the relevant council, with officials working through options for removal and disposal. While both accounts focus on the same incident, they frame the issue around the practical steps now needed—such as assessing the condition of the whale, planning safe handling, and deciding on the most suitable method for transport and disposal.
At this stage, the reports do not specify a final decision or a timetable, indicating that planning is ongoing as authorities weigh operational and financial considerations.
