People of Newfoundland, Canada discovered strange light blobs washing up on their seashores, prompting an analysis by officials.
Around first September along Placentia Bay, reviews of the unusual element started to surface. Officials in Ottawa have performed primary tests, which indicate that it is “plant-based,” but it is still not known for certain. There has been a lot of debate on social media, with topics ranging from fungi and mould to worn, a substance used in perfumery by whales.
Stan Tobin, a native, described the spots as “doughy—like anyone had tried to cook food and done a horrible work”. Additionally, the spots have a unique odor that resembles fruit oil.
Tobin, an activist from Ship Cove, discovered the spots during one of his shore excursions, first mistaking them for Styrofoam. ” I’ve come across hundreds and hundreds of globs—big droplets, much globs”, he said, noting that most are about 6 inches in diameter, as reported by BBC.
Dave McGrath, another nearby, described the spots as” thick and strong inside”, resembling waffles before flipping. Authorities have been unable to identify the source of the orbs, which raises questions about their security because they have already reported the findings to the Coast Guard.
A large size that was discovered in Newfoundland in 2001 was later discovered to be a part of a decomposing egg whale. But, these new spots are not linked to sharks.
