Reader in Environmental Pollution Dr Fay Couceiro says the oil "can be toxic" and can stay in sediment for a "long time" after it was reported that an approximate 200 barrels of fluid leaked into Poole Harbour. Wildlife Trust volunteer Angela stresses the urgency to get animals that have had contact with oil "proper care", whilst Jim Stewart from Poole Harbour Commissioners says the spill is "very rare", and that they "have never had an event like this". .
