POLLUTION MONITOR by

A monitor lizard ~ slinks and slides up a narrow waterway in pursuit of its prey. Their tough skin withstands all weather and most abrasions ~ but what about pollutants in the water? Here a layer of ‘Oil’ ~ seen with its tell telling iridescent sheen on the waters surface ~ revealing the ‘reality’ of mans adverse impact upon nature.

Might these creatures be the ‘pollution monitors’ of the future!?
