Former independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. revealed that he is being investigated for collecting a whale specimen two decades ago. Kennedy suggested that the investigation was politically motivated, connecting it to alleged whale deaths. While he did not provide specific details about the incident, his daughter previously recounted a story involving a whale carcass. Kennedy, who has endorsed former President Donald Trump, denied killing a whale when asked by reporters. Environmental groups have called for an investigation into the incident, expressing concerns about potential wildlife violations. Kennedy has faced criticism in the past for other controversial wildlife-related statements, including an anecdote about a bear incident in Central Park. The National Marine Fisheries Service, which is part of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, has not yet commented on the investigation. Kennedy has accused the media of focusing on trivial matters, emphasizing the need to address serious policy issues. He has been actively campaigning for Trump and advocating for his supporters to back the former president.
