Comodoro Rivadavia: dead sea lion remains uncollected for a week

A dead sea lion has remained among the rocks in Comodoro Rivadavia for nearly a week. The carcass, located on a central beach in a high-traffic pedestrian area, has been moved by the tides but has not been removed by municipal environmental or biosecurity authorities.

Local residents have expressed concern regarding potential health risks, including the spread of pathogens from scavenging birds and the presence of foul odors. There are also concerns for pet owners regarding potential contamination. The lack of official intervention or safety cordons has drawn criticism from the community.
