8 Pilot Whales Found Dead off the Florida Coast

Eight pilot whales have died in shallow waters off Floridas southwest coast, with six others remaining unaccounted for.  The Coast Guard has temporarily closed the area to traffic and ordered boaters to reduce speeds off the shores of Fort Myers. These whales usually make there home at least 20 miles off the Coast of Florida, so when they do swim inland it's often a sign they are suffering from some king of disease.
