BRIDGETOWN _ Officials here found a dead whale this week in the Annapolis River with the arrival of the spring thaw.
Bridgetown mayor Art Marshall says officials suspect it could be the same whale that was spotted a couple of times in the river last fall.
They think it was a sperm whale calf that weighed between one and two tonnes.
He says firefighters used their zodiac to pull the whale to an area where it was loaded on a truck.
It was then taken away an buried.
It's not the first time a whale has made it through the tidal power plant in Annapolis Royal and into the river, but officials believe it's the first one that didn't make it back out.
