Sadly, Inland was found dead off the Virgina Coastline in April, apparently the victim of an entanglement in fishing gear. She was one of at least three humpback whales to die off the east coast during April, 2001. There are current newspaper articles available in the media link below about the sad death, as well as all of our Fall 2000 coverage.
