A Pet Dog with Oily Nose

The warning to evacuate comes often down in the south of Louisiana. Most of the people here left everything behind in the belief that they would return shortly. Many locals left all belongings and pets behind and still haven't been able to return after the devastating hurricane. The animals that survived have been drinking the contaminated water coming from oil industries nearby. This is 23 days after hurricane Katrina hit and devastation is evident, with villages and towns still flooded with contaminated water from the oil industries. Local residents and officials blame a ruptured Shell pipeline for spreading oil through marshes and communities down river from New Orleans.
