- Microplastics found in every marine mammal surveyed in UK study. The research on 50 stranded creatures, including porpoises, dolphins, grey seals and a pygmy sperm whale, found an average of 5.5 particles in their guts, the most comprehensive analysis of microplastics in wild cetaceans and seals. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2019/jan/31/microplastics-found-every-marine-mammal-uk-study 261 comments worldnews
