GULF SHORES, Ala. (AP) -- Dolphins and sharks are showing up in surprisingly shallow water just off the Florida coast. Mullets, crabs, rays and small fish congregate by the thousands off an Alabama pier. Birds covered in oil are crawling deep into marshes, never to be seen again.
Marine scientists studying the effects of the BP disaster are seeing some strange - and troubling - phenomena....

Gulf Shores Alabama Beach
Well that would make them easier to catch
Poor critters.
Hey President Bullshitter...get off your ass and do something besides talk!
“Day by day, scientists in boats tally up dead birds, sea turtles and other animals...”
And what are we paying them to do that? My father would have asked “if they find a dead horse, will they look up their arse to see why it died?”
Where are the GD vacuum ships from all over the GD world that cleaned up off the Saudi coast? Still haven’t worked out a deal with our unions?
Heading for shore so they can file a claim against Obamas $20Bn stash.
President Sh!t Stain leaving his mark...
Rampant looting and robbery occurs....Buses could have been used...Obama issues $2000 credit cards to fleeing creatures...oh wait, that was Katrina.
Yup.
Thanks Okenya!
We’re rapidly becoming a third world hell hole, complete with “plagues”, just like ya wanted!
Really, it won’t be that bad. Read up about the hundred+ tankers that were carrying crude that were sunk by U-Boats in the Gulf during WWII.
All that oil washed up on shore too. Gone in a couple years. Yes, it stinks but like everything, life goes on.
Earth self heals just as we do after we scrape a knee.
I’m heading to my home in Naples, FL soon. If the oil makes it there, I’ll spend my time walking the beaches with trash bags and a sand shovel.
an environmental catastrophe unparalleled in U.S. history
despite the fact that creatures are frolicking in abundance near the shore.
I'm not saying things are not bad, but we are seeing the usual tendency of the Leftists to hype things in preparation for another of their govt. expansions.
Get this piece of disaster-hype:
The fish could also fall victim to predators such as sharks and seabirds.
Well, predators have been eating things lower on the food chain for millions of years. If the predators were being wiped out along with their prey, we might have reason to worry, but in the natural realm, conversion of one form of life into another is not "an environmental disaster without parallel." Predators normally do not exterminate their prey populations; that would not be in their own interest.
Why can't Obama take a cue from this? But seriously, this is heartbreaking. What a nightmare this is.
If this mess doesn’t bring you to tears, what will? It is truly devastating. And we’re putting up with it....
These articles always use words to tell us, but no pictures...Oilbama thinks we aren’t mature enough to handle it, I guess.
Mullets on the beach? Yuck!
Would that include Marxist predators in the US who are gorging themselves on wilfully ignorant sheep?
