Wildlife experts will do DNA tests on a dead whale they believe may have been the mother of a calf nicknamed Colin, hours after the young whale was euthanased.
The Daily Telegraph reports the development came as National Parks and Wildlife head Sally Barnes revealed Colin was actually Colleen - a female humpback whale calf.
It is believed a whale carcass being eaten by sharks near Eden on the New South Wales south coast may have been her mother, explaining why the young whale turned up alone and hungry in Pittwater on Sunday.
