Deep-Sea Whales, Dolphins: PFAS Crisis
Groundbreaking research reveals that marine mammals, including deep-sea species, are heavily contaminated with "forever chemicals" (PFAS), challenging previous assumptions that these habitats offered protection from human-made pollutants. This alarming discovery, based on a study of whales and dolphins in New Zealand waters, raises significant concerns about the long-term health of these creatures due to the bioaccumulation and biomagnification of these toxic substances.
