The specific number of animals affected by an oil spill can vary greatly depending on the incident. For example, the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in 2010 impacted an estimated 8,000 to 10,000 birds, along with thousands of marine mammals, fish, and other wildlife. Each spill has different consequences, and the total number often remains uncertain due to the challenges in assessing the full impact on ecosystems.
