Ken Bugden takes a closer look at the dead whale that washed up on Black Point Beach Saturday.

Brian Cullen, CAO for the municipality, said it is the municipality’s responsibility to remove the whale and it plans to do just that as early as today.

BLACK POINT – An 8.1 metre Minke whale and calf are still on the Black Point Beach where they washed up on shore Saturday.

He said the whale will be moved about 700 metres and buried. The municipality is in the process of getting permission from the Department of Natural Resources to get an excavator on the beach. It also must obtain permission from landowners for a right of way to the beach.

Cullen said the whale couldn’t be towed back out to sea because it would be considered a navigational hazard
