Ecological sinkers, also known as ecological traps, are areas that attract organisms but are ultimately harmful due to high mortality rates caused by human activities or environmental changes. In these traps, organisms are tricked into perceiving the area as suitable habitat but face decreased survival or reproductive success. Examples include artificial lights leading sea turtle hatchlings away from the ocean or oil spills attracting seabirds.

Why is lead Pb used for fishing sinkers?

It's heavy and cheap. It's also soft enough that you can pinch it around the line easily. When I was a kid, you got split-shot sinkers and attached them to the line by putting the sinker in the split then biting it--yes, with your teeth. We were all a little dumber then.
