Steve Benham, geosciences professor, sorted through a pile of bones. Patiently, they’d taken the vertebrae of the juvenile whale, piecing the 27-foot long backbone together with large rubber bands and rope. What led this threesome to be kneeling in the shed, started when a dead female whale washed up on an Olympia beach in 2007 near Johnson Point. Now what? Whale carcasses have been dealt with in a variety of ways by wildlife agencies – ranging from towing the carcass out to sea, letting it rot or
