New Sightings Of An Invasive Species



A number of shopping carts have been discovered dwelling in the waters just off the west shore of the Istrian peninsula, and reports of new sightings continue to come in. Shopping carts, previously considered a land species, confined mainly to the malls area, now appear to be expanding their habitat to the sea as well. Some say this apparent migration may be the evidence of the evolution taking a reversal course. The scientists fear the invasion might endanger the local fauna and flora. However, a cursory investigation shows that the local populations of tyres and fan worms appear unaffected thus far. Further investigations are underway.

Shopping carts never wanted to be in malls. They always wanted to be free to return to the sea.

Fun post and great shots. It's a shame in a way how much lands in the sea but good that the sea life don't seem to mind at all.

There is a local campaign to take care of our environment and it lists the most dangerous species in Mediterranean waters: cans, bottles, plastic bags...etc...
