Oily problem for Humbolt pelicans

The Humbolt Wildlife Care Center has a tricky problem. They're getting a lot of Brown Pelicans that need treatment for oil contamination. But because the birds are being hit by "fish oil" rather than petroleum, they're finding themselves on their own in dealing the with problem. Apparently, the fish clean stations along the water dump a great deal of fish waste into the water.
