Most of the information available is derived from past whaling activities. This information, with biological data defining normal body condition and blubber lipid content, provides a starting point for the evaluation of natural phenomena as causes of sperm whale strandings. For example, depression of blubber lipid content was found by others in many of the sperm whales which stranded in 1994/1995 in the North Sea, and is consistent with Smeenk's hypothesis (this volume) of a general process of starvation in a shallow sea essentially devoid of those pelagic cephalopods which constitute the sperm whale's principal prey. Cross-disciplinary data derived from whales stranded on the North Sea coast in 1994/1995 are also considered with the concern that pollution may have contributed to, or caused these strandings. However, the pathological details, plus the fact that the one Belgian whale with hemorrhagic skin ulcers had severe weight loss, the lowest blubber lipid content measured, and carried the lowest concentration of lipid-soluble toxicants, all suggest that any specific cause of death linked to the pathogenesis of the skin ulcers was not related to pollution. Further research into this question is strongly encouraged.","AbstractOtherLang":"In dit artikel wordt een overzicht gegeven van natuurlijke ziekteverschijnselen die door de jaren heen waargenomen werden bij potvissen. De meeste informatie waarover we beschikken is afkomstig van de voorbije walvisvaart. Deze informatie, samen met biologische gegevens van de normale lichaamstoestand en het vetgehalte van de speklaag, voorziet ons van een startpunt voor de evaluatie van natuurlijke fenomenen als oorzaak van de stranding van potvissen. Veelonderzoekers stelden bijvoorbeeld een daling van het vetgehalte in de speklaag vast bij veel van de potvissen die aanspoelden in de Noordzee in 1994/1995, dit in overeenstemming met de hypothese van SMEENK (in dit volume), van een algemene uithongering in deze ondiepe zee waar pelagische inktvissen die de voornaamste prooi vormen van potvissen niet voorkomen. Ook over de resultaten van het multidisciplinair onderzoek van de strandingen van 1994/1995 in de Noordzee wordt dieper nagedacht, uit vrees dat ook vervuiling een rol kan gespeeld hebben, of zelfs de oorzaak was van deze strandingen.","BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"Natural disease problems of the sperm whale","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2024-12-10 01:33:17.368041","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+01:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":null,"OtherDescriptors":"sperm whale, disease, stranding, lipids, starvation, pollution, toxicants","Notes":null,"AnaPub":1997,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2021-02-23","DateCreate":"2000-08-24","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":null,"VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":0},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":854,"PubliDate":1997,"Pagination":"105-112","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"67","Issue":"suppl.","BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":44202,"SerRR":"Bulletin van het Koninklijk Belgisch Instituut voor Natuurwetenschappen.
