The dead whales can explode

Whale skin is very thick and has strong elasticity, withstand extreme pressure, and is extremely difficult to decompose. The super-thick layer of fat under its skin takes a long time to break down. When the gas pressure inside the whale rises to dangerous levels, it can have 'explosive' consequences. Even the slightest poke can break through the fragile barrier between gases trapped inside their carcasses and turn into a real disaster.


Under normal conditions, these gases will escape through openings, such as the mouth or anus. However, it was found that the whale's body mass would cause every hole in its body to be sealed, and the gas would have no way to escape. And the corpse kept accumulating gas like that and while the body's capacity was limited, it was inevitable that the corpse would explode. It's just, we don't know exactly when or what will cause it to explode. There is no countdown timer for this. So sudden explosions can cause its organs, flesh, and blood to splatter everywhere. This debris flew tens, even hundreds of meters away. With such a large mass and tremendous speed, it is possible to damage large and solid objects such as houses, cars, trees, etc. Therefore, those standing close will be extremely dangerous, even affecting their lives. Those stenches fly everywhere carrying bacteria, and no one wants to get stuck on them.
