Researchers Find 115 Plastic Cups In Dead Whale’s Stomach
The dead animal was found earlier this week on Kapota Island, Southeast Sulawesi by a team from Wakatobi National Park, according to The Jakarta Post.
The newspaper reported that the animal was starting to decompose when it was found.
In addition to the cups and sandals, the WWF said the following items were found in the animal’s stomach: 19 pieces of hard plastic, four plastic bottles, 25 plastic bags, and about seven pounds of rope.
