A number of fishermen found a humpback whale carcass floating off the coast of Sampang Regency, Indonesia.

Footage from March 30 shows authorities inspecting the 20-metre-long whale carcass.

The Sampang Water and Air Police officer, First Inspector Catur Rahardjo, said the whale was found by local fishermen in a rotting condition.

"The whale is estimated to have died a month ago. The carcass will be left in the middle of the sea and then drowned using ballast and anchors," Rahardjo said.

According to officials, the cause of the whale's death is unknown and is still under investigation.
