Sunken Whale Calf Vanishes Off San Diego Coast, Baffling Divers

SAN DIEGO A puzzling incident unfolded off the coast of San Diego when a diver encountered the body of a deceased whale calf during a recent dive. The diver, an experienced local familiar with the area, noted the location of the carcass before returning to the surface. However, upon returning to the exact spot just a short time later, the whale calf was gone.

The disappearance has raised questions about the natural processes at play in the ocean depths. Several theories have emerged, ranging from strong underwater currents shifting the remains to the potential involvement of larger marine scavengers. Experts suggest that the whale calf, being relatively small, could have been easily moved by strong tidal forces.

Another possibility is that the carcass was consumed or dragged away by sharks or other large predators. While the ocean floor is a natural graveyard, the speed at which the whale calf vanished is unusual. Marine biologists are now investigating the incident, hoping to determine the exact cause of the calf's disappearance and gain a better understanding of the ecosystem dynamics in the area.
