blog # 5 !!

http://www.cnn.com/2011/US/04/08/dolphin.death.mystery/index.html?iref=allsearch#


This article was really interesting. There are baby dolphins found washed up on the gulf of Mexico either stranded or dead. 406 dolphins have been found washed up on shore since february of this year. Most of the dolphins found are very young. Some scientists believe the oil spill might have something to do with the deaths of the dolphins but most no one really knows the for sure reason of these dolphins dying. However, some of the dolphins found have oil remains either in them or on them. The dolphins found are bottlenose dolphins. The article also mentions that the number of stranded sea turtles have been increasing recently too. This is really sad becuase for some reason the bottlenose dolphins seem to be the most effected by (if that is the reason) the oil spills.
