An otter has been found dead on an Irish beach with a plastic beer ring cutting into her neck
Ranger David Ferguson made the grim discovery last week while working for Donegal’s LIFE on Machair project, conserving the coastal area and at risk birds like lapwings and curlews.
“Otters make their fur waterproof and buoyant by blowing air into their fur. That’s why they are preening themselves all the time to keep their fur in good condition. While the beach near Derrybeg is busy with visitors, the conservation worker says: “The beer ring could have come from Australia. “It’s coming in on the tides or when you get a storm or people’s bins are blown over and it washes down to the sea... sometimes it’s just the way it is.
