Description

Biologists from Cascadia Research, WDFW and SR3 examine two adult gray whales in Ocean Shores, Washington, on April 4, 2026, one day after the whales washed ashore. One was male and the other female, and both were about 42 feet long.

Just two days after a young gray whale stunned southwest Washington by swimming about 20 miles up the Willapa River, two adult gray whales washed ashore dead Friday at Ocean Shores, about 20 miles north of where the juvenile entered the river through Willapa Bay. They came ashore along a stretch of beach north of the North Jetty and south of the Taurus Boulevard beach approach.
