Lars already posted that there was a dead cetacean on the beach at Tierra del Mar this past weekend. Photos are at https://plus.google.com/photos/108227095313398589521/albums/5947806487495130113?authkey=CNiG1-jQoI6o2wE The very long dorsal fin suggests that this was a Risso's Dolphin (aka Grampus), but I would be interested in an expert opinion. Curiously, the head appears to have been cleanly hacked off.
