A dead humpback whale known as “Timmy,” which drew months of public attention in Germany after a controversial rescue attempt, is towed ashore in Denmark for a post-mortem examination. Multiple outlets report the carcass is brought to the Danish island of Anholt after being found dead in shallow waters off the coast. Experts expect the necropsy to help determine the cause of death, following weeks of public focus on the whale’s condition and a later failed effort to return it to the sea. NPR and BBC report that the whale’s body drifted near the Danish shore for roughly two weeks after it died, while Euronews describes Danish authorities probing the death and aiming to identify why it died weeks after it was moved back toward open waters. The West Australian reports that Danish authorities schedule the autopsy for next week and that the procedure is expected to take around six hours. Danish environmental officials urge the public not to approach the carcass, citing safety concerns.
