By Pete Thomas Dozens of sperm whales were spotted Monday afternoon off Trump National Golf Club on the Palos Verdes Peninsula, sending marine mammal enthusiasts scrambling to locate them from a boat.
The extremely rare sighting – single foraging males are occasionally spotted, but this is a nursery pod including young whales – comes during a week that has included rare sightings of two types of killer whales in Southland waters.
Harbor Breeze Cruises was with the sperm whales Monday, and Capt. Mike Redlew of the La Espada said the pod exceeded 100 animals.
