Saw this pose in other sub. A humpback whale remains in the "middle" of rainforest (said to only be 15-25 meters from the shore). How exactly do you think it got there?

From the Noadic floods 2000 years ago. Read the Bible and learn the truth!

Not sure why this is hard to understand?

Not surprised the whale died, the rainforest is no place for a whale to be

[-]

JustinTime5591@reddit

That is why 'a humpback whale remains in the rainforest." It's dead, not going anywhere.

[-]

Serious answer, there was debate when this picture first showed up that it was already dead and in the early stages of decomposition, and therefore still floating, when a typhoon or some sort of rogue wave (or even a tsunami) some years back deposited the corpse much further up past the tide line.

Serious answer, no you're wrong.

The whale carcass was moved by people after it decomposed.

[-]

OarsandRowlocks@reddit

A wave hit it?

[-]

sk3pt1c@reddit

And then the front fell off

[-]

Bat2121@reddit

Which is not typical.

Thank goodness that whale made it past the environment

In the business we call that “bloat and float.”

Upstairs_Bike3409@reddit

What business is that?

Goats and Boats.

The bloating and floating in the goating and boating community has gotten far out of had in recent years

I believe this was linked the the phenomenon known as a tidal bore

Not tide. Storm surge

Storm surge.

I swear this was from somewhere else... ive seen this before..

It’s definitely not.

But not as untenable as the stratosphere of a planet. Somebody better look for a smashed bowl of petunias around the carcass.

[-]

KitchenSandwich5499@reddit

What’s the improbability of that?

NSASpyVan@reddit

What's that sound rushing past me? I'll call that wind!

[-]

VulnerableValkyrie@reddit

What’s this thing rushing towards me very fast?

Very big and flat and round, it needs a big sounding name like ground!

I wonder if it wants to be he my friend?

Oh no, not again.

Shellfish were found on mt Everest. Don’t think a world wide flood is out of the question, especially when you take into consideration carbon-14.

Survival-instincts@reddit

I would say a very large wave caused by a meteor or earthquake.

*looks skeptical af the green thing* its a what now?

[-]

BigBeeff_21@reddit

Maybe a big storm? Happens in Australia on a smaller scale, could have been a crazy big storm and threw the whale a couple hundred miles

[-]

KitchenSandwich5499@reddit

Washing the whale a few dozen meters up the beach is one thing, but throwing a whale a couple hundred miles seems a bit much

[-]

BigBeeff_21@reddit

Hey idk I'm just brainstorming here

That’s ok, it’s an awesomely funny mental picture though

Express_Radio_9771@reddit

This is Corcovado National Park. It’s right near the beach. The carcass was hauled up from the shore and the bones were reassembled when the whale decayed.

Hauled up by people? They should not be doing that in a national park. First of all, it's important for whale carcasses and the nutrients they contain to return to the ocean. They can't do that if a bunch of humans bring them away from the beach. Secondly, national parks should be left as natural as possible, with very limited human interference. Bringing a whale's corpse into a forest is definitely interfering.
