It is an event so rare that no one can remember it happening in Boston Harbor, and no one can predict what is about to unfold.
A dead finback whale, which could be as long as 70 feet, was spotted early Sunday morning floating near Black Falcon Cruise Terminal in South Boston, drifting with the currents like a message in a bottle.

Gee I know this might be too simple but why not just tow it out to one of Boston's outer islands and let it decay? After the gulls,crabs, and other scavengers finish with it pick up the skeleton. What happens when whales die out at sea? I'm quite sure a tugboat that pushes around aircraft carriers around could do the job for very short money. It seems that the easiest solutions are overlooked so some people can make money by complicating things.
