LONDRES CAMARÃO COM COCA

Researchers from King’s College London and the University of Suffolk uncovered a startling discovery in England’s waterways. Every freshwater shrimp tested, specifically the species Gammarus pulex, was found to contain trace amounts of cocaine. The study also revealed other pollutants, including ketamine and prescription drugs, highlighting the extent of chemical contamination. Such findings raise concerns about the health of aquatic ecosystems and their long-term stability. This research underscores how human activity directly impacts even the smallest forms of wildlife.
