These have been washing ashore in California.  They quote scientist Phil Hastings as saying that these sea creatures “get confused” and end up here….but don’t explore the “why” of it–probably poisoned by mercury in the ocean or some other noxious chemical.  Maybe even corexit? Maybe their food has been poisoned?  There is a reason that they are washing ashore and that needs to be explored without consideration of polluters like BP and others.
