The whale's species and how it ended up on the beach are yet unknown.

Vasai: A gigantic carcass of a 40-ft-long whale, weighing over 30-tonnes, was found washed ashore from the Arabian Sea on the remote Mardes Beach in Vasai of Palghar district.
As per details, the locals spotted the carcass, which was decomposing rapidly and letting off a strong suffocating stench in the entire area.
After being informed, officials of the forest department reached there. They, however, could not identify the marine creature’s species as it was already highly decomposed.
They surmised that the gigantic marine creature may have died in August and was tossed in the waves to the beach during high tide.
The whale's species and how it ended up on the beach are yet unknown.
An official said, “It’s very difficult to remove and dispose off the huge and bulky carcass…We will try to bury it on the beach itself to prevent stray dogs from devouring it and rid the area of the reeking stench”.
