In July, 2002, sixty pilot whales littered the sand of Cape Cod beach, as if some giant who'd been playing pick-up sticks had flung them down there. They were of all ages and sizes. Some lay alone; others were stacked on top of one another like pieces of wood." What causes whales to leave the ocean and become stranded on land? Scientists around the world are searching for answers. Possible causes include man-made noises, weather or the activity of the sun, and illness or injury. Sources. Glossary. Index. Color photographs.
