After existing efforts to save the aquatic animals, Australian authorities are euthanizing 90 beached whales stranded on a Tasmanian beach.
The animals are part of a pod of 157 whales that beached near Arthur River, a township on the northern part of the West Coast of the island of Tasmania, the Marine Conservation Program reported Tuesday. The other whales died shortly after the stranding, according to the federal agency.
