Description
English: Whaling in the Faroe Islands Northern bottlenose whales are sometimes stranded in places where there is an isthmus, like in the villages, especially in the villages of Hvalba and Sandvík on Suðuroy in the Faroe Islands. The whales are then used for human consumption for the local villagers. It is believed, that the whale by mistake swims to near land and because there is no high mountain where the isthmus is, it swims to near to the beach and can't get away again.
Deutsch: Den Entenwal døglingur kommt auf den Färöern zu Nes, Hvalba in Septembermonat gegen Land. Hierbei handelt es sich um spontane Strandungen kleinerer Gruppen.
