Why do beached whales need water poured over them?
Whales need the water. In the the water, whales are weightless. On land, whales weigh tons. If a whale is on land too long, they are crushed by their own weight. beached whales need water poured over them because they live in the ocean, so they are always wet, but when beached, their skin will start to dry out, which can kill them
