GWADAR (The Thursday Times) — Taqreeban 30 feet lambi ek blue whale Budh ko Gwadar ke East Bay sahil par Coast Guards ke daftar ke peeche murda payi gayi, aur WWF-Pakistan ne is ki maut ki wajah janne ke liye tehqiqat shuru kar di hai.
Maqami zaraye ke mutabiq sahil tak pohanchne se pehle whale ko do din tak Gwadar ke paniyon mein tairte dekha gaya tha. WWF-Pakistan ke technical adviser Muhammad Moazzam Khan ne kaha ke mumkin hai woh kam gehre pani mein dakhil hone ke baad rasta bhatak gayi ho, jahan us ki samt shanasi mutasir ho sakti hai. Maut ki asal wajah abhi maloom nahin.
Khan ne is maut ko samandari hayatiyati tanawwo ke liye tashweesh ki baat qarar diya. America ke National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration ke mutabiq baligh blue whale taqreeban 100 feet tak lambi ho sakti hai, is lehaz se 30 feet ki yeh whale apni nasal ke hisab se chhoti thi.
Pakistan ke sahil par is se pehle bhi aise waqiat ho chuke hain. April 2019 mein taqreeban 34 feet lambi whale Gwadar ke sahil par murda payi gayi, May 2023 mein taqreeban 42 feet lambi whale Jiwani ke Bandari sahil par mili, November 2023 mein 27 feet lambi Bryde's whale Pasni ke qareeb murda payi gayi, aur June 2024 mein taqreeban 35 feet lambi whale Gwadar ke qareeb Kantani mein samandar mein tairti mili. WWF-Pakistan sahil par phansne wali whales ka record rakhta hai.
