The coast of Visakhapatnam continues to be the scene of many novelties and specialities. A variety of sea creatures come ashore for a variety of reasons and continue to amaze everyone. Interest in marine science continues to increase. From exotic fish to the recent presence of jellyfish along the coast, fresh sea turtles to whales are constantly being spotted somewhere along Visakhapatnam.
A huge whale caught in the fishermen’s net.
Recently, a whale shocked the fishermen in Tantadi-Vadapalem of Achyutapuram mandal of Anakapalli district. A huge whale was caught in the net of the fishermen who went for hunting on Friday. Fishermen from nearby Paravada mandal Vadacheepurapalli were fishing in the background while pulling the nets and felt heavy weight. There was an unknown joy and anxiety in them at the same time. With the joy of catching a large number of fish, they dragged the net to the shore with great difficulty. A huge whale was seen in it. At first the fishermen were worried because it was 30 feet long and 6 feet wide. He recovered immediately and took the courage to examine it and found that it was sick. No matter how much effort was made to send it back to the sea, it could not go, so it was left there. The fishermen are asking the authorities to take immediate steps to remove the whale as they cannot bear the stench for days if the whale dies there and cannot even go hunting.
Is it due to pharma contamination?
Recently, many sea creatures have lost their lives and reached the shore in Paravada and Achyutapuram areas. Recently large sea turtles and in some cases dead fish have been found along the coast. Due to the fact that some industries belonging to pharma along with SEZ near all these are releasing chemical waste into the sea without treating it, many fishermen are expressing distress. They remind us that due to this pollution even small whales have died and reached the shore in the past. They are expressing their anguish that if the authorities are not alert to such actions, they will have to see dire consequences.
