At that time, Catherine Couillard, head of ecotoxicology research at the Maurice Lamontagne Institute (MLI) of Fisheries and Oceans Canada, stated that &#8220;Ingestion of plastic can sometimes lead to the animal&#8217;s death or progressive wasting with waning health and reproductive problems. Plastic pieces are substrates that increase the risk of attachment and introduction of invasive species that may compete with native species and disrupt the ecosystem.&#8221; In other words, in addition to harming animals directly, refuse can also affect them indirectly by modifying the ecosystem via the presence of substances that fauna and flora are not accustomed to.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How is it that 30 plastic bags find their way into the stomach of a cetacean?
