The blue whale is the largest animal on Earth, weighing in at around 200 tons. So when a dead one was found washed ashore in South Africa with its tail apparently bitten off, it was pretty big news.

The body of the whale was discovered on a beach near Cape Town. It's not clear how the whale died, but locals speculate that it may have been attacked by a large shark.

This isn't the first time a blue whale bitten in half in South Africa. In fact, there have been several reports of such incidents in recent years.

So what's behind this disturbing trend? Some scientists believe that it could be due to the increasing number of killer whales in the area. Killer whales are known to prey on blue whales, and they are believed to be responsible for a number of other whale deaths in the region.

Others, however, believe that the blue whales may simply be getting caught in the middle of territorial disputes between killer whales and other predators. Whatever the case may be, it's clear that these majestic creatures are in danger. Hopefully, we can find a way to protect them before it's too late.
