Seafood caught in the Black Sea fuel oil pollution zone will not be edible for several years, experts said.

For Dolphins, who are at the top of the food chain in the marine ecosystem, they will suffer a large and delayed impact. The impacts of the spill could include long-term reductions in prey availability, decreased birth rates, accumulation of contaminants in the body, changes in immune function, and increased disease.

"According to published data, after oil spills in other seas, the highest levels of dolphin mortality were recorded for 4 years, an increase in the mortality of cubs by 46% and a deterioration in health in the population. We predict a wave of critically ill dolphins that will start to be washed up on the coast with warming," note specialists from the dolphin rehabilitation center "Bespeshnoye More".

All three species of Black Sea cetaceans are listed in the Red Books; every year they are washed ashore, being sick, injured, or left without a mother too early.
