How are the animals in the ocean getting hurt?

Answer 1

Trash and chemical dumping are two major culprits... BOTH human-caused.

ALOT of animals are endangered in the ocean.

Here are some of them: the Hawaiian monk seals, hawksbill turtles, steller sea lions, hammerhead sharks (along with ALOT of other shark species), the gulf of California harbor porpoise and the blue whale.

It is terrible that all of these wonderful animals have the risk of becoming extinct.

To see about how you could help bring back the wild (for kids) please go to the "Earth Rangers" website.

If you are an adult just go to the rainforest site. These are just some of the ways to help our environment and the animals in it.

I hope this answers your question

Answer 2

Runoff from streets and farms carries pollution and trash into the oceans, which can make animals sick. Light pollution in coastal areas can confuse sea turtles, affecting their survival. Propellers from boats frequently injure manatees.
