19th Century Weapon Found In Whale

[BroncoSexyDaddy]

A 50 ton Bowhead Whale caught off the Alaskan Coast last month had a weapon fragment embedded in its neck that showed it survived a similar hunt-more than a century ago.

Embedded deep under its blumber was a 3 1/2 inch arrow-shaped projectile that has givin reserchers insight into the whales age,estimated between 115 and 130 years old.

That's crazy. I remember about 108 years ago I was whaling and shot it with my black powder gun. It didn't die, but I bet that ish is still stuck in it's blubber.

Pretty old Whale.

I wonder if Jawsie explored the same waters as that whale.
