It will be the third straight bowl

Band’s 31st football drill in three

After two weeks of tests, the
death of “Pilgrim,” the rare pygmy
sperm whale, remains as mysterious
as ever.
Texas A&M University veterinar
ians, however, have ruled out
speculation that a toxic renal condi
tion and ear canal parasites were
contributing factors.
Dr. Cayman Helman, clinical as
sociate in Texas A&M s Veterinary
Pathology Department, said Friday
no exact cause of death for the
1,000-pound mammal had been dis
covered after an autopsy and micro
scopic tissue studies.
“This is not uncommon, espe
cially in marine animals, he said.
“We don t know their history or
where they came from. We don’t
have any owners to fill in the details.
