Porpoise in toilet

I've heard of alligators in the sewer, but not porpoises in toilets.

I haven't been able to find out if there was ever a solution to the mystery of how a porpoise came to be in the toilet of the Glasgow train station. I'm assuming student pranksters were probably involved.

Isn't there a book about odd things found in public restrooms? If there isn't, that has to be the one category that's been overlooked by the chroniclers of the weird, bizarre, and odd things in the world.

I'm sure someone just left it there by accident.

I still suspect this was done on porpoise.
