Ocean plastic pollution: Heartbreaking! Whales accidentally eat plastic barrels
Blue Planet II, a BBC documentary series about Marine life, will air its final episode soon. This is the heartbreaking moment seen in a trailer for the series. A sperm whale sips a plastic bucket into its mouth after mistaking it for food, most likely leaving it stuck and unable to eat. All Marine life, not just whales, are suffering from plastic pollution in the ocean, and the sea turtles in the Kenyan coastal city of Watamu are no exception.
