Motorists were left stunned by the sight of a rotting 50ft whale being driven along a busy dual carriageway. The sperm whale died more than a week ago after it became stranded near Seasalter, on the Kent coast. Its rotting body was left unattended for five days before it was finally loaded onto the back of a lorry to be taken to a landfill site. The corpse was strapped to the truck with part of the mammal hanging off the back. A sheet of tarpaulin was draped over it but failed to hide all of the dead animal from passing motorists. The sight and pungent smell of the whale travelling along the A2 towards Canterbury left some drivers choking at the wheel. Mark Stephens, 41, took these photographs on his way home from work.
