Beached means cast up on a beach, and possibly unable to extricate oneself from the problem. Could apply to ships and whales, particularly Pilot Whales. Informally, to be 'beached' means that one is too inebriated to move, much like a beached whale.

Whaling and sealing are considered unacceptable commercial activities in new Zealand. Because it is considered that the Cetacea are of high intelligence, and thus deserve protecting.
