Why are dead and dying seabirds washing up on our beaches in their hundreds?

"In October and November, horrified beachgoers often find dead and dying
muttonbirds washing up in an event called a seabird “wreck”.

Again this year, there are reports of Australia’s beautiful east coast beaches
turned grim with hundreds of dying seabirds.

Here’s what we do and don’t know about seabird wrecks, and what you can do if
you come across one."
