It's day 64 of this catastrophe in the Gulf, the leak continues to gush on at an estimated 60,000 barrels a day and there still seems to be no end in sight.
The latest reports on the oiled wildlife toll is that the numbers are quickly rising, with either not enough ships able to reach the animals in the affected areas or the fact that many of the ones that have been rescued simply aren't surviving.
The oil spill has claimed over 800 birds, 350+ sea turtles, a sperm whale who ventured too close to the damaged well, and, of course, the countless other sea creatures destroyed due to the spill. CBS reported that of the over 500 sea turtles that have been rescued, only 1 in 5 survive.
