| File photo of pilot whales beached on New Zealand's South Island |
A group of
90 pilot whales have beached on a spit at the northern tip of New Zealand's
South Island - the second incident in the area this month.
The whales
in Farewell Spit, Golden Bay, are being kept cool by conservation staff.
Officials
are hoping that the whales will be able to refloat themselves when the tide
rises in the evening.
Seven
whales died in the same area earlier this month when 25 of them were stranded.
"We
generally get one stranding a summer and we occasionally get two, but since
I've been here in the past 10 years, we've never had three," regional
conservation area manager John Mason was quoted by the New Zealand Herald as
saying.
The whales
were spotted by an aircraft pilot while flying over Farewell Spit, he added.
In
November, 47 whales also died in the same area when a pod of 65 got stranded.
Pilot
whales - which are mammals and belong to the dolphin family - can grow up to 20
feet and weigh up to three tons.
Scientists
do not know what causes mass beaching of whales.
They are
most common in New Zealand in the summer, when whales pass by on their
migration to and from Antarctic waters.

( .. The whales beached themselves because the
magnetics of the earth shifted so greatly that their navigational system [the
magnetite in their biology, which is their migration compass] steered them
right into the land. The land didn't move; the magnetics did. Therefore, you
might say their internal inherited migration map was flawed. The reason it's
not happening now is because the calves, the generation beyond the one that
beached themselves, figured it out and rewrote the maps. Nature [Gaia] does
this. So the next generation didn't repeat it. Instead, it realigned itself to
the migratory lay lines and now whales don't beach themselves nearly as often.
The magnetics of the planet continue to shift and the birds are unaware. Like the whales, many of the birds have migrated themselves right into a high place in the atmosphere, which pummeled them to death by freezing rain and hail. Then they fall from the sky. It's the weather cycle. Will they continue to do this? Some will, for awhile, and then they will figure it out and recalibrate. That's what nature does. ..)
