Dentalux toothbrushes collected by Malcolm and Anne Carre from Moulin Huet Bay on the 28th February 2022

Anne and Malcolm Carre collected 347 Dentalux toothbrushes washed up at Moulin Huet Bay on the 28th February 2022. Pierre Ehmann collected a further 37 and I collected a few as well.

The Malcolms also collected two Nongfu Spring plastic water bottles from China, which they used to fill with the toothbrushes.

The toothbrushes along with other cargo were lost from a container ship in rough weather off the coast of Brittany, France on the 16th February 2022.

Sealord photography's biodiversity images began with a focus on international commercial seafood species and the marine life of the Bailiwick of Guernsey, Great Britain.

Sealord photography has a growing collection of digital images covering climate change, the environment and sustainability issues.

Sealord photography also covers the Guernsey community and particularly the fund raising activities of Guernsey charities as part of the island's social sustainability.

The fish, shellfish and marine life images would not be possible if it were not for the generosity of commercial and recreational fishermen in Guernsey, and seafood suppliers at various trade shows in the USA, and wholesalers at Fulton Fish Market in New York City.

Many marine biologists have helped identify or confirm the identity of marine species photographed. These people have been mentioned when possible.
