Dead zones are the leading cause of our wildlife dying in the world. A "dead zone" is a body of water that has an over amount of nutrients from sewage and run-off in the water. The number of dead zones has sky-rocketed from 44 in the year 1995 to over 400! Some of those bodies of water exceeding over 22,000 sqkm!!! The areas of these dead zones include; the Gulf of Mexico, South China Sea, Gulf of Finland, the Black Sea, Adriatic Sea and areas of the Caribbean.This is affecting animals lives in a variety of ways.
