Abstract: Abstract Mass strandings of live whales have been explained by proposing many ‘natural’ or human-related causes1. I found that a recent stranding of Cuvier's beaked whale coincided closely in time and location with military tests of an acoustic system for submarine detection being carried out by the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO).
