All of these and dozens more found washed up on Ocean Isle Beach, N.C. this morning. Most of the smaller specimans had bloody snouts and perforations near the back of the gills. Larger specimans showed no apparent signs of physical distress. Most were 18" to 30" in length.
I'd be interested to know what caused these beach strandings.
