Pelicans in Louisiana Decline After Endrin Contamination
Louisiana officials report the pelican population plunged by more than 75 percent due to industrial chemicals and pesticides washing from Midwestern fields into the Gulf of Mexico. Tests show lethal endrin levels in the birds as a spring flood left Grand Terre Island breeding grounds contaminated, with about 100 birds remaining. Angelle notes Mississippi River sources north of Louisiana as the culprit and plans restocking efforts after the 1960s collapse.
