A dead blue whale has washed up in the small Newfoundland town of Trout River (seriously Canada, name your towns better!), attracting a wave of tourism. Unfortunately the small town isn't really geared up to dispose of a 25-metre whale carcass, and it's starting to get a little pungent.

More alarmingly, the corpse is now beginning to bloat, sparking fears of an internal gas explosion (still not exaggerating). Currently refused any government assistance, the town population of 688 are now faced with a battle aginst the clock to somehow remove the carcass before things get... messy.
