Mangrove Pollution Kills Tidie The Smooth-Coated Otter
The Smooth-Coated otter died when he reached Cat Tien National Park. I am sorry, I did the best I could but I can't help Tidie. I brought him back to the otter house and buried him under the tree. Pollutants such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and dichloro-diphenyl-trichloroethane (DDT) and their breakdown products can damage otters' nervous systems, affect pregnancy, and overall health, and compromise their immune systems. Otter Tidie died from a poison that damaged his stomach, making him unable to digest food. After that, some people said I should prove that I didn't kill otter Tidie, I had to dissect his belly to show you how mangrove pollution has harmed this innocent baby otter. He drank toxically and ate some plastic debris, coconuts, and straws. I feel sad when I've been an otter conservationist for the past 10 years, but people always think I'm keeping otters as pets like someone else.
