flag A young, underweight humpback whale died after stranding on New Jersey’s coast despite rescue efforts.

flag A 29-foot humpback whale named NYCO476 was found stranded on a sandbar off Long Beach Island, New Jersey, on October 17, 2025, and died on October 19. flag The young whale was severely underweight and had wounds from past propeller strikes, likely impairing its ability to feed. flag Despite relocation efforts by the Coast Guard and attempts to humanely euthanize it, delays due to storm-damaged access and darkness prevented intervention. flag Officials confirmed the whale died from injuries exacerbated by stranding and its own body weight. flag This follows a similar minke whale death in August after a boat collision.
