CONSERVATIONISTS WASH PETROLEUM FROM A PELICAN.
Conservationists from the International Fund for Animal Welfare wash a pelican affected by the oil spilled when the tanker "Jessica" ran aground nearly two weeks earlier, on San Cristobal in the Galapagos Islands, January 28, 2001. Salvage teams have given up trying to move the stricken oil tanker that fouled Charles Darwin's Galapagos island paradise, and the clean-up effort is now focused on helping sea lions and birds worst affected by the spill.
