Disturbing! Dead Whale Washes Ashore Lagos Beach, Immediately Butchered [Photos]
In a somewhat disturbing turn of events, an unknown specie of whale which washed ashore at Eleko Beach in Lagos was immediately cut up by locals who intended to eat it.
I say disturbing because no one knows how the whale came to be washed onto the beach. Usually, only sick whales get beached, and without study, no one knows if the diseases that floored the whale could be transmitted to human beings. So people be careful what fish or meat you buy or eat in Lagos this week.
