Scientists have made an alarming discovery about what kinds of pollution are
most harmful to seabirds. A study led by Australia's Institute for Marine and
Antarctic Studies discovered that balloons were the deadliest kind of plastic for
seabirds. Balloons are 32 times more likely to kill seabirds than hard plastics. While
balloons and other soft plastics accounted for only 5 per cent of plastics ingested,
they were responsible for more than 40 per cent of deaths among seabirds. Hard
plastic fragments may pass quickly through the gut, but soft plastics are more likely
to become compacted and cause fatal obstructions. Plastic is becoming an
increasing threat to seabirds. With an estimated 280,000 tons of floating marine
debris worldwide, about half of all seabird species are thought to ingest plastic on a
daily basis. Birds are especially likely to swallow dangerous balloons because they
closely resemble squid, according to the stu
