I remember once when a sick whale beached it self and died on a beach called La Jolla shores in San Diego. Nobody knew what to do with the cadaver so the city asked the Navy for assistance. Uh,
the Navy? They sent a team and a decision was made to use explosives. So some C4 and a demo team blew it to pieces.
Rotting, stinking pieces, all over the beach.
A few sailors with haz-mat suits and chain saws And a couple trucks could have done it within hours. They ended up picking pieces for days.
