During this winter a high number of bottle nose dolphins have been found dead, washed up on the shores of the United States. Scientists don't have any explanation to why this is happening. Everyone wants to jump to conclusions that last year’s BP spill is the cause of all these dolphins deaths, but it is still too early to tell exactly what the reason is. Since January first, 80 dead dolphins have been found washed up on the shores. Dolphin die- offs occur every few years, but this one stands out because of the 80 dead dolphins found, 42 of them have been babies. Scientists are considering cold water, ocean biotoxins, and diseases, and they haven’t ruled out the BP spill quite yet! Im not sure why the dolphins are dying off, hopefully scientists will find a solution so the dolphins can live.
OMG, this is so sad! Scientists need to find out what's going on and fast! And the fact that most of them were babies makes it even worse.
ReplyDeleteScientists need to figure out what is causing this so they can stop it, and the dolphins will live!
