It kills all the plants and animals and pollutes the water.If animals swallow it they will become ill and die.It's sticky so when birds get covered in it,their wings stick to their bodies so they can't fly away and hunt.They would die of starvation or because they swallowed the oil.It's horrible even describing it!
