It’s looking like another really bad year for gray whales. Thus far, 23 have stranded or died along the Washington coast — outpacing the strandings recorded during the historic 2019 die-off. The number has been more modest farther south. There have been 20 beachings and deaths in California, down from 30 as of this time last year, but up from 10 in 2024. And there have been eight in Oregon, which according to Michael Milstein, a spokesman for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, is also a record.
