Beached whale in Ocean Shores died from 'blunt force trauma'
The 30.5-foot-long juvenile whale was in "good nutritional condition" after it was examined, according to NOAA spokesperson Michael Milstein.
The cause of death was "blunt force trauma consistent with a ship strike."
More information on the whale's death is expected to be released this week.
Earlier in July, a humpback whale was reportedly struck in Puget Sound by a state ferry. That whale was not immediately found.
