How does Mercury Affect Wildlife?
Eagles, osprey, loons, turtles, mink, otters, and other fish-eating creatures are at risk from eating mercury contaminated fish. Mercury in their diets can cause early death, weight loss, and problems with their ability to reproduce. Unfortunately, wildlife cannot read fish advisories or change their eating habits to avoid mercury contamination.
