East Riding of Yorkshire council were able to remove 17m carcass without cutting it up in large-scale operation
The carcass of a 30-tonne fin whale that died after being beached in Bridlington has been removed in an operation described as the “largest of its kind” the local council has ever carried out.
The 17m whale became a macabre tourist attraction on Bridlington’s South Beach after it died on Tuesday evening during attempts to return it to the sea.
