More than 40 pilot whales have died after a mass stranding on a Western Isles beach. About 55 of the mammals washed onto Traigh Mhor beach at North Tolsta on the Isle of Lewis at about 07:00 on Sunday morning. Marine charity British Divers Marine Life Rescue said only 10 had survived.
Why is it so sad seeing such massive creatures die en masse?
Because we instinctively know these creatures are far more emotionally intelligent than we are, and that it’s likely our fault
