I do not normally follow much about dolphins and whales on the Internet as such a lot of it seems to be mushy made up nonsense. The link to the http://joanocean.com led me to reading a lot of fascinating things (once had stopped gagging at the site's My Little Pony style portal page!) In particular I found the articles about Sasquatch a great read, as I have had many similar experiences out in the 'wilds' of the UK over the years (though not with Sasquatch).
I have no yes/no thought one way or the other regarding marine mammals committing suicide to show us that our way of life is terribly wrong, but we do keep seeing articles here about beaching deaths. Recently it was a pod of small whales, now this today; http://goo.gl/RmrEH. I have not done any research into whether such incidents are on the increase, whether they happen at particular times, or are just the current news buzz because reporters are looking for anything to fill pages. Interesting though.
