Will we ever understand nature?
Seems sad this:

Happens so often that it must have a purpose though.

Here is a follow up to yesterday:

It seems very strange. These are deepwater dolphins yet beached themselves
The beach is very remote but 50 whales did exactly the same thing in the same place last year
Nature works in mysterious ways.

I know that for years it has been suggested that military submarine sonars could be to blame for the beachings which appear to have no apparent known causes ( such as disease, sharks attacking etc) . Many of these so- called beaching incidents have gone up over the years , so scientists have been looking into this possibility for a while now .
If you key into google - "dolphins whales beaching and submarines " you'll come across quite few articles and also a few news stories about the possibility of it.
Here is a similar story ,deepwater Dolphins beaching themselves( which happened in the US) where they are investigating the possibility of this:

cheers
P.s - Try fishing with a fishfinder still on - it B*ggers the fishing up. It annoys a lot of the fish and most of them b*gger off , that's why most of us turn the unit off when anchored up to fish - now imagine what a sub's sonar does to mammals never mind fish

When animals, fish or whatever stick together in groups, it only takes one to go the wrong way to put all the others in danger. Very sad, but also the order of life
