Dead humpback whale discovered in Brazil’s Amazon jungle puzzles researchers
Biologists were baffled to discover the body of a huge humpback whale being picked at by vultures in the midst of trees and shrubbery in Brazil’s Amazon jungle in late February.
The sea creature, which is roughly 26 feet long, was found dead about 50 feet from the shore of Araruna Beach, the Brazilian nonprofit Bicho D’água Institute says.
Authorities say there is no truth to the rumor that the whale was found clutching a thumb drive containing mysterious financial records.
