Shipwreck Victims
A shipwreck on a jagged reef is a major disaster for the surrounding area. Toxic oil and waste from the damaged hull spill out into the ocean, contaminating the environment, and destroying the local wildlife. There is no way to help the fish, seals, crustaceans and shellfish, but the lives of many seabirds can be saved if they are rescued promptly to undergo expert treatment.
