RE: Amazing Animals #7 The Wandering Albatross
I had never thought about their saltwater ingestion before, so to learn about the built-in filter was fascinating.
It certainly is heartbreaking to know that so many careless or greedy people are directly or indirectly leading to the great suffering, harm, and decline of these birds (and other creatures).
It's a trait present in all Seabirds, so next time you're at the seaside look closely at the Gulls and you'll probably see a bead or two of water dripping off the end of their Bill, that's concentrated saltwater!
