Sightseers were flabbergasted after spotting an extremely rare “lost” whale while exploring the Welsh coastline, as detailed in a Facebook post making waves online.
It blew these Wales-watchers minds.
The creature was actually a Sowerby’s beaked whale, a super rare species that generally resides in the North Atlantic Ocean at depths of over 3,280 feet, per the Sea Watch Foundation, a charity that works to conserve marine life. “HOLD THE FRONT PAGE!!!!” wrote SeaMor Dolphin Watching charters on their Facebook page. “NOT JUST A WHALE.. A SOWERBY’S BEAKED WHALE IN NEW QUAY.”
“There have only been 13 confirmed sightings of Sowerby’s whales in the UK since 2007,” said Claudia Afeltra, a marine biologist with the Sea Watch Foundation.Thankfully, the majestic sea beast “turned and headed back to the deeps on its own accord,” per the post.
