Rescuers saving turtles from a devastating oil spill that has coated Israel’s coast with thick black tar have found an unlikely ally – mayonnaise.
The spill, which Israel’s Nature and Parks Authority has called one of the country’s worst ecological disasters on record, has coated most of Israel’s 120 miles of Mediterranean coastline with sticky tar, and has caused extensive damage to wildlife, including sea turtles.
Guy Ivgy, a medical assistant at the National Sea Turtle Rescue Centre in Michmoret, north of Tel Aviv, said 11 turtles are being treated at the unit.
