Scientists are saying that there is another, more dangerous oil plume under the waters of the Gulf. While animal rescuers and Humane Society members try desperately to save the birds and wildlife affected, their quest is heartbreaking. Once the pelicans and coastal birds are cleaned, they are released and often end up right back in the oil again. As temperatures are heating up along the coast, zoologists are stating that the hot oils are scorching the birds in the sun.

While the media has moved on to the more important topics, such as the best summer sandals to wear on your next cruise, this catastrophe continues in what seems total isolation from the rest of the country. Please help spread the word so our beautiful beaches, coasts, and the innocent animals affected will have a fighting chance.
