Dolphins in the Gulf of Mexico have tiny bits of plastic in their breath, and this is probably a worldwide problem

Microplastics have been found in dolphin breath, suggesting the animals could be exposed to the potentially harmful particles through inhalation. In a study researchers collected samples of exhaled air from five bottlenose dolphins in Sarasota Bay,

A study suggests aquatic mammals could be exposed to the potentially harmful contaminants through inhalation. The post Scientists detect microplastics in dolphins’ breath for first time appeared first on Talker.

Researchers have found microplastic particles in the breath of wild bottlenose dolphins, indicating that inhalation might be a significant exposure path for these animals, alongside ingestion. This discovery,
