A dead whale has washed up on a beach in the UK for the second day running.

Experts believe the carcass found on Porth Neigwl beach was a young sperm whale.

They said in a statement issued on Facebook: ‘Once located, we directed a team from British Divers Marine Life Rescue to the cliff top who confirmed the whale was dead and currently thought to be a young sperm whale. The coastguard team added: ‘Please do NOT attempt to approach the whale as this part of the beach is fully cut off at high tide and any contact will impair the valuable results to be gained from a full autopsy.’, on Sunday amid a string of recent whale deaths across the UK.
