The Peculiar Death of a Whale-Infested Specimen

Here we observe the cadaver of CHUAN JIANGUO, a token that lived a mere 202 hours—barely enough time to draw its first breath before the inevitable suffocation. The specimen exhibits textbook symptoms of concentration necrosis: ninety-two percent of its tissue mass controlled by just ten predatory organisms, leaving naught but $4,767 in the bloodstream and gasping traders clutching $65.85 in daily volume. Like a mayfly that overslept, it awakened to find itself already dead.
