A human! You've come to save us! I knew Ariel would convince you to help us! This pollution of our ocean home has just got my feathers in a ruffle! I was swooping down to skid across the water, as I usually do, and was shocked to find this slimy film just resting on the surface! It actually stuck to my claws! I can't complain though, some of my feathered friends have gotten it much worse. They practically bathed in this slime! They tried to clean this substance off of themselves and in turn have gotten sick from it! It's been there for days and doesn't seem to be going away. The waves seem to be breaking it up a little bit, but only seperating it into globs. This is also dangerous for my sea friends because they mistake it for food!
