Muscat: Environmentalists in Oman are concerned by the recent deaths of two endangered Arabian Sea humpback whales.
“The death of two Arabian sea humpback whales is of great concern, as it represents two per cent of the estimated population,” said Sayyida Tania Al Saeed, President of the Environment Society of Oman (ESO). There are approximately only 100 of the whales in the Arabian Gulf.

The carcass of an endangered Arabian Sea humpback whale washes ashore in Oman.
Marine scientist Andrew Wilson, who is a member of the Whale and Dolphin Research Team at the ESO, told Gulf News on Wednesday that fishermen alerted him to the news.
“Fishermen in Shuwaymiyah near Halaniyat Islands in the south saw dead whale floating and they took some pictures,” he said, adding that the other whale found in eastern Oman was apparently alive when it washed ashore.
