Meanwhile on South Island,105 stranded pilot whales died last Saturday，conservation officials said.Golden Bay biodiversity (生态) program manager Hans Stoffregen said they were discovered by a tourist plane pilot and only 30 were alive when conservation workers arrived.“They were in bad shape.By the time we got there，two-thirds of them had already died.We had to kill the rest in a painless way，”he said.“The whales have been out of the water for a long time.It had been quite hot and they were very sad.You could see the pain and suffering in their eyes，”he told The Southland Times newspaper.

　　Because the site is part of a nature reserve，these dead whales were buried where they were stranded，Stoffregen said.Large numbers of whales become stranded on New Zealand’s beaches each summer as they pass by on their way to breeding grounds in Antarctic waters.Scientists so far have been unable to explain why whales become stranded.
