Together, @oceanauk.bsky.social + @zslofficial.bsky.social examined research on harm to wildlife from 1000s of oil spills in UK waters, finding evidence of:
- lung lesions in bottlenose dolphins
- harm to the livers of minke whales
- orcas + dolphins less able to successfully reproduce
🚨 NEW PUBLICATION! 🐳🎉
Our new review paper, now published in Mammal Review, maps the the literature focusing on threats to 19 marine mammal species, to summarise volume of research, and highlight knowledge gaps (for species, locations, threats).
Read it here: doi.org/10.1111/mam....
Excited to present some of the incredible work @zslofficial.bsky.social #CSIP and @strandings.bsky.social are doing and what we can learn from strandings! Come join us at the #DonostiaSustainablilityForum next week!!
