ANHOLT, Denmark \u2014 The carcass of a humpback whale, whose life and death captivated Germans for months as the mammal became repeatedly stranded in the Baltic Sea, was dragged Saturday onto a Danish beach after two weeks of the body languishing in shallow waters.<\/p>\n

The whale had gained the nicknames \u201cTimmy\u201d and \u201cHope\u201d as German media outlets sent push alerts and updated live blogs with the status of its health since it was first spotted off the German coast on March 3.<\/p>\n

The whale was found dead on May 14, stranded just off the small island of Anholt in the Kattegat, the broad strait between Denmark and Sweden that connects the Baltic Sea to the North Sea.<\/p>\n

The whale\u2019s death ended months of a spectacular and contentious rescue effort that culminated May 2, when the mammal was transported toward the North Sea in a barge in a final effort to guide it back to its natural habitat in the Atlantic Ocean.<\/p>\n

The carcass will be examined next week to determine the cause of death, according to the Danish Environmental Protection Agency.<\/p>\n

Danish news outlet \u201cNews5\u201d on Saturday published a livestream of the carcass being dragged onto the shoreline by a cable attached to a truck on the beach.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not clear why it swam into the Baltic Sea, which is far from its habitat and it wasn\u2019t suited to, although some experts said it may have lost its way while swimming after a shoal of herring or during migration.<\/p>\n
