The whale had washed ashore last week and was being dissected to recover its skeleton for a preservation.
The dissection of the carcass is expected to be completed in a few days as at present a large number of people, accompanied by their families particularly children, are visiting the site everyday and getting photographed with the whale.
Sindh Wildlife Conservator Muneer Ahmad Awan said despite efforts made by the SWD staff, chain-saw or electric-saw could not be made available, and services of professional butchers have been hired for the purpose. The area is, however, is giving a foul smell.
He said that expert butchers have now been arranged who with the expertise and comparatively better tools would expedite the cutting process, but it would take a few more days to remove the meat from the skeleton.
He said the staff was also looking for the communities that ate the whale meat.
He said that the whale could not be shifted to the university or other research institution as no organisation had such a larger place to safely keep and handle the carcass. Besides the shifting would also cost a lot.
He said that as soon as the SWD staff started cutting the whale, the police came and took a few staff members for questioning, however, later after a departmental intervention, they were released and now the police had even provided a few guards for security purposes.
The skeleton, after preservation, would be put on display at the SWD Museum. He said that the educational institutions and other concerned research organisations would also be approached and offered to view the carcass and allowed, if needed, to take specimens for research and education purposes also.
