Meant to write about this a while ago
already. At the beginning of this month it became known that a pilot
whale in Thailand had fought for its life. Already during the rescue
attempt it threw up 5 plastic bags. The rescue attempt failed and the
whale died eventually. An autopsy revealed 80 plastic bags in its
stomach, weighing up to 8 kg (18 lb).
80+ plastic bags in the stomach was too
much for the whale. When will it be too much for the humans? For the
rest of the world?
