This discovery amazed me: A whale "graveyard" extending over 1,200 km. The remains or fossils of about 480 whales found in a total survey area of about 0.64 square kilometres, with one of the fossils dating back more than 5 million years.

Researchers have discovered a "megasite" of dead whales along with new species of marine life feasting on the corpses.
But the locations of the remains and the highways don't tie in together very well to my eye. So maybe it's not connected to the corridors whales migrate along, or perhaps the lack of overlap is because most of the remains are from beaked whales and we don't have much data on their movements
