When these heartbreaking images of oiled birds finally began to emerge from the Gulf of Mexico last year during the horrific BP oil spill, a German biologist by the name of Silvia Gaus was quoted as saying, "We should just euthanize all oiled birds, because studies have shown that fewer than one percent of them survive after being released."
Quando estas imagens desoladoras de aves cobertas de petróleo começaram finalmente a aparecer do Golfo do México no ano passado durante o terrível derrame de petróleo da BP, uma bióloga alemã chamada Silvia Gaus disse, literalmente: "Devíamos abater todas as aves cobertas de petróleo "porque os estudos têm mostrado "que, depois de libertadas, só sobrevivem menos de 1%."
