Too Sad for the Whale Shark

Tweet

Yesterday, I heard the news on television about a whale shark that died after it ate plastics. It is called "butanding" in our native tounge and it is commonly seen in shores of some provinces of the Philippines. People who investigated the cause of death saw lots of plastic wastes inside the whale shark's tummy. I wish all people would be responsible enough, or even governments be responsible in handling plastic wastes. We can, in our own little way, minimize plastic wastes or at least dispose it the proper way so it will not end up in the oceans.
