Fragments of plastic are often ingested by marine animals.

Unfortunately, little known is about this deadly marine debris found within Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary. This video describes a new, collaborative research project.  In addition to staff scientists, many partners work on this project, which is funded by Save The Earth Foundation.
