Head of Marine and Fisheries Division of Aceh Marine Affairs Nurmahdi said the sperm whale or head of the box was a group life. He suspects the fish migrate from the Hinda Ocean to the Pacific Ocean due to the changing seasons.
"While passing through the Straits of Malacca there may be one fish that is sick, this whale is in a group, if there is one who is injured and turns the other will follow it," he said.
The evacuation process is still ongoing. Of the nine stranded fish, one of them has been successfully pulled back into the sea. SINDOnews monitoring, the evacuation process has been going on since 10:00 pm. The condition of the whale's body is seen getting hurt due to the more shallow water and not about his body.
