Has skin problem
This one is an insane story. I got a tip that a male sperm whale had beached down in Venice Beach FL, just about an hour south of where I live. Took the chance with two of my friends and we ended up staying the night. We were essentially the only ones that saw him pass away. Once the officials started gathering, (MOTE, CMA, FFAW, etc.) we heard that they had no idea what happened during the night. We were able to inform them and once they found out how long we had stayed they asked if we wanted to help out with the necropsy! One of the most beautiful animals I’ve ever seen. We also got to fill out a Mortality report, fully documenting the events that happened during the night, including video, illustrations, and images.
The three of us named him “Orion” due to the constellation that was above him while he was still alive. We miss you Orion.
The final statistics was that he was a male individual, that was 44 feet long, and weight approximately 70,000 pounds. He was also underweight, most likely due to the still as of yet undetermined cause of death.

I didn't expect that Taiwan magpies also enjoy eating frog eggs. For more than an hour, they (I guess two individuals) kept picking out frog eggs from the egg sac. Based on my years of observation, there is a high probability that the egg sac belongs to the spot-legged tree frog.
