I'm sad a missed out on the real action, but feel privileged that i got to get so close to such a beast, and certainly don't feel unhappy that I don't have to clean blubber and gore out of my 660!

 

It's a sad story, and we may never know why it happened.

 

The conclusion that it starved to death simply because the stomach was empty may be a bit simplistic.

 

Loads of animals stop eating when they know they are going to die, so the empty stomach may have been a symptom rather than a cause?

 

Fair play to Mick and Rich for getting stuck into a very gory, unpleasant job, but one which needed to be done.

 

RIP Moby.

Amazing!...

...How did you get the job?

 

One of my friends works for a company that makes documentaries, Inside Natures Giants, being one of them.

 

They needed a hand getting through the ribs as part of the autopsy and thought of a tree surgeon. They called me but I was busy on the Friday with another commitment. Mick, went there and got his mush on the telebox and they called him back the next day to help cut it into size for the skips. So Mick called me and the rest is history.

I'm totally bored with tree work now, I wanna find something else to cut up.

 

Canada, USA, Greenland, Faroes, Norway, Russia, Japan, Grenadine Islands, Phillipines and Indonesia still allow whaling in some form. Maybe a job if you look around.
