Huge numbers of dead ocean animals have been found on shorelines in the North East of England, provoking examination from the Environment Agency. The office affirmed on Monday that they have dispatched an examination after local people revealed wraps of dead shellfish up to "midsection profound" at times. The odd peculiarity which has "stunned and disheartened" occupants were accounted for in different areas on Teesside, including Saltburn and Seaham. The Environment Agency said that it will assess whether contamination is to be faulted for the puzzling and serious sights.
