hmm, whats this washed up on my beach.
anyone know what species this is ???, ive tried to find a website that might help me with this as it is very unusuall for this to sort of thing to be seen on my beach (Bispham/Cleveleys). to no avail i thought id ask here.
im thinking a baby whale maybe of the killer variety ? its about 2ft long maybe more.

I would guess it`s the remains of a young Common porpoise "Phocoena phocoena". I can watch them quite regularly in the Baltic sea - nice fellows.

side fins is there right in the centre, black skin still on it. in its mouth was stuffed with wood, lolipop sticks etc,
 i had thought it got that stuff stuck there and therefore died... but from that skeletal image the jaw and head dont seem quite as sharp and pointed.
