Battersea Bridge whale found motionless on shore巴特西橋,鯨在岸上一動不動

(The mammal was found motionless on the river banks under Battersea Bridge該哺乳動物在巴特西橋下的河岸被發現一動不動)

A dead whale has washed up in the River Thames for the second time in two months.死鯨在兩個月內第二次在泰晤士河上被衝走。

The mammal, believed to be a minke whale which can grow up to 33ft (10m) long, was found motionless on the river banks under Battersea Bridge late on Friday. 該哺乳動物被認為是一種小鯨魚,可以長到33英尺(10m)長,在周五晚間在巴特西橋下的河岸被發現一動不動。

The Port of London Authority (PLA) said it will "endeavour to get the whale recovered safely" over the weekend. 倫敦港務局(PLA)表示,它將在周末「努力使鯨魚得到安全回收」。

A humpback whale was found dead in Greenhithe in October.十月份,一頭座頭鯨在格林海斯發現死亡。

(Clio Georgiadis said her 11-year-old son spotted the whale on Friday evening克裡奧·喬治亞迪斯(Clio Georgiadis)說,她11歲的兒子在星期五晚上發現了鯨魚)

Clio Georgiadis said she was left "very emotional " after finding the whale while walking her dog at about 21.30 GMT. 克裡奧·喬治亞迪斯(Clio Georgiadis)說,格林尼治標準時間21:30 walking狗時發現鯨魚後,她「非常激動」。

"We tried to see if there was any life in it but there was no breath coming out of it," Ms Georgiadis said. 喬治亞迪斯女士說:「我們試圖看看其中是否有生命,但是沒有任何呼吸。」

"It was very sad to see." 「這是非常可悲的。」

(A post-mortem examination will be held on the whale to establish a cause of death將對鯨進行死後檢查以確定死因)

The PLA believe the mammal is a minke whale, which can weigh up to 10 tonnes. PLA組織認為,這個哺乳動物是小鬚鯨,重達10噸。

They are occasionally spotted in British waters, preferring cooler regions to tropical areas, and can also be found in the Atlantic, Pacific, Indian and Arctic Oceans. 它們偶爾會在英國水域發現,比熱帶地區更喜歡涼爽的地區,也可以在大西洋,太平洋,印度和北冰洋發現。

The PLA confirmed that it had received reports of a large mammal in the River Thames on Friday afternoon. PLA證實,星期五下午已收到泰晤士河上大型哺乳動物的報告。

"The first clear indication we knew it was a whale was sadly when it washed up dead," PLA spokesman Martin Garside said.PLA發言人馬丁·加賽德說:「當它的死屍被衝上岸時,我們知道這是一條鯨魚,我們的第一個感受是傷心,。」

Two marine experts from the British Divers Marine Life Rescue were dispatched to assist the PLA removing the whale from the water. 派遣了來自英國潛水員海洋生物救援隊的兩名海洋專家來協助解放軍從水中移動鯨魚。

The whale will be sent to the ZSL London Zoo for a post-mortem examination. 鯨魚將被送到ZSL倫敦動物園進行屍檢。
