Lobsters on More Mesa

There are dozens of lobsters lying dead on the beach below the cliffs between the outlet of the estuary
surrounding the airport and More Mesa beach west of Hope Ranch. As the tails are intact, this doesn't
appear to be the work of poachers. And it wasn't characteristic of past demonic acid events.
This is the first time in my eight year residency in More Mesa Shores that I have witnessed anything like
this. While its cause is unclear, it appears possible it is the result of petroleum pollution, as this
is also the first time I've had to remove tar from my shoes after walking on the beach.
Photos are attached.
