Robert F. Kennedy Jr. once decapitated a dead whale with a chain saw on a beach, according to his daughter Kick Kennedy.
In a resurfaced interview with Town & Country in 2012, Kick Kennedy described the event as "normal."
The story resurfaced over the weekend after Robert F. Kennedy Jr dropped out of the presidential race and endorsed former President Donald Trump.
Kick Kennedy described how her father found a whale that had washed up dead on Squaw Island, a Massachusetts beach.
According to her, RFK Jr ran down the beach with a chain saw, cut off the whale's head and bungee-corded it to the roof of the family minivan, because he likes studying animal skulls and skeletons.
The family then drove five hours back to Mount Kisco, New York, with the whale on the roof.
"Every time we accelerated on the highway, whale juice would pour into the windows of the car, and it was the rankest thing on the planet," said Kick Kennedy.
"We all had plastic bags over our heads with mouth holes cut out, and people on the highway were giving us the finger, but that was just normal day-to-day stuff for us."
The Kennedy campaign was contacted by email for comment.
This is not the first time Kennedy's encounters with dead animals have caused a stir.
Earlier this month, Kennedy admitted to dumping a dead bear cub in Central Park in Manhattan 10 years earlier, saying that he and his friends who assisted thought the act was "amusing."
The story originally made headlines in 2014 when a woman found the dead cub while walking her dog.
Kennedy announced that he is suspending his campaign for the White House on Friday.
Later that night, Kennedy Jr. joined Trump on stage at a campaign rally in Glendale, Arizona.
When introducing him, Trump called Kennedy Jr. "a man who has been an incredible champion for so many of these values that we all share.
Trump also called the endorsement by Kennedy "very nice."
