'Sea snot' plagues Turkish coast
Turkey is facing a problem with 'Sea Snot' in recent days.
Sea snot, sea saliva, or marine mucilage is a collection of mucus-like organic matter found in the sea.
The creamy, gelatinous substance is generally not harmful but can attract viruses and bacteria, including E.
Coli, and it can become a blanket that suffocates the marine life below.
It is frequently seen in the Mediterranean Sea and has recently spread to the Sea of Marmara.
