Update on 26 July at 5:15 pm
Officers from the Shire of Harvey have now removed the whale carcass from West Coast Drive Beach, Binningup.
Beach closure signs will remain in place at least until 12.00 pm on Saturday 27 July where Shire officers will review the closure.
Additional caution is recommended by the Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development, as any residue from where the whale carcass was beached may still attract sharks to the area.
Switch on your Sea Sense and stay informed of shark activity information by checking the SharkSmart website, download the SharkSmart WA app or follow Surf Life Saving WA Twitter.
If you see a shark, report it to Water Police on 9442 8600.
