iWitness | 12 October 2012
City officials removed a dead whale from Capricorn Beach near Muizenberg on Monday 8 October 2012.

The carcass of the Southern Right whale washed up on the beach on Sunday evening.

iWitnesses sent us these photos of the whale being transported through the city on a truck - certainly not an everyday sight!
