Over 150 False Killer Whales Stranded On Australia's Tasmania Beach

More than 150 false killer whales - a species of dolphin - are stranded on a remote beach on Australia's island state of Tasmania, officials said on Wednesday. Marine experts including veterinarians were at the scene near Arthur River on Tasmania's northwest coast, a Department of Natural Resources and Environment statement said. Of the 157 beached dolphins, only 90 appeared to still be alive, according to department liaison officer Brendon Clark. A few hours earlier, the department had said 136 had survived.
