4ocean Bali rescued an entangled seabird!
Thanks to the clean ocean movement, our Bali crews were once again in the right place at the right time to save an animal entangled in marine debris.
This time it was a seabird that needed our help.
On January 20, one of our Bali river crews found an entangled seabird during a normal cleanup of the Ijo Gading River. The crane, which is not endangered but is still a protected species, had about two pounds of fishing line wrapped around its leg and one of its wings. Our crew cut the line and checked the bird for injuries (which amounted to some torn feathers) before releasing it back into the mangrove forest where these birds are normally found.
The animals we help save by recovering ocean plastic is a prime example of how business can be a force for good and how the pounds you pull make a difference for the ocean each and every day.
