According to the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries, over 600 different species are in danger of being affected by this oil spill. Among the ranks are 445 species of fish, 45 species of mammal, 32 species of amphibians and reptiles, and 134 species of birds not to mention innumerable plant, invertebrate, and micro-organism species that make up the foundation of a functional ecosystem.
