The cause of beaching is attributed to different causes, one of which is an inner infection, other scientists say that they have are following schools of fish or plankton (krill) and run agound. A third theory is that they develop an uncontrollable urge (something such as causes lemmings to commit suicide). But all three may be true at different times. Many beached whales returned to deeper water survive, but others will again turn to the beach. However the water where most whales live is rather clean compared to more tropical areas because of less industry and sewage and such. Most of the dead zones in the ocean are closer to the equator. The pH of the ocean remains constant (7.8 to 8.0) so the SO2 (Sulfur dioxide) isn't causing acidification. Mercury poisoning is more common is bays than in open water. Most pollutants are measured in parts per million (ppm) and some are even measured in parts be billion (ppb) Such phenomena is not new and beaching has occured over the last century. Another theory is that beaching is a means of population control. As the number of fish is reduced by overfishing (many fish are caught in the arctic and antarctica for human use), perhaps the lack of available food supplies will jeopardize the species and even humans have starved themselves so that their children could survive. So if that is true, then they do commit suicide but not from pollution.

Why are people so vicious about grammar? Who cares, so long as you can understand it? He isn't submitting a report to congress here, he's posting a question on Yahoo Answers for crying out loud. And if you can't understand it, then don't answer it. English probably isn't his first language, so cut him a break.
Anyway, to answer your question, I know that some marine biologists believe that whales do commit suicide. It'd be pretty hard to test for what's going on in a whales head when it beaches itself. I'm sure they do have emotions and everything, but personally I think they only beach themselves on accident or when they're ill. Of course, I'm not a marine biologist.

examine your very own recommendations please. i do no longer comprehend how others think of and it quite is not suitable to me how they rationalize their very own righteousness. Self righteousness it the genuine villain. people who sit down around questioning how they're greater wonderful are like drunks on a bar stool undertaking worldwide affairs with a bottle. people enroll in all forms of philosophies, their very own and others. What perfect do you may criticize them? Are you greater suitable? Smarter? you are able to't stay a existence from a e book. So, what do you comprehend? faith is a sturdy element. Blind faith is efficient. a lot of people have not have been given any get entry to to medical approach, and that they does no longer use it for ethical and non secular perspectives in the event that they did by way of fact they have hassle-loose experience. The Bible and maximum different scriptures of the worlds religions are myth and fiction. There are large training in the scriptures. do no longer positioned people down or assume you comprehend what they have self belief. isn't it candy adequate that individuals have the loose perfect to prepare their ideals with out Hitler, Stalin, dictators and tyrants telling others what they could have self belief and to be faithless. you're borderline with a tyrant. i do no longer care with reference to the ten factors, yet once you had hassle-loose experience you may look into faith, perception, and how prayer works. it quite is not in simple terms twist of fate, prayer works interior of each and each cellular of your physique. supply it a truthful attempt and don't enable your recommendations block the approach.

They may beach themselves and die if they are sick. Also, I think with all the electric water signaling devices they may just become confused and beach themselves because the can't talk to each other with all that chatter from sonar or other devices. As a result they die.
