On Aug. 2, local time, a whale collided with a small tour boat in Barnegat Bay, Ocean County, New Jersey, USA, throwing a woman aboard into the water.
Subsequent reports indicate that the woman was uninjured, but the whale that collided with the boat has died. Witnesses reported that after the collision, the whale appeared to be trying to swim to deeper water, but to no avail.
Local marine animal protection agencies stated that the whale's body will be sent to a state animal protection agency for an autopsy on Aug. 4 to determine the cause of death.
