Answer:

Oil spills damage soil, this causes the soil to become unusable and the crops growing to subside. Oil also causes water pollution because the oil rises to the top and coats the top of the water causing it to be very hard to get out of. Oil spills also damage nesting grounds, potentially causing serious long-term effects on entire species. ... By coating feathers, oil not only makes flying impossible but also destroys birds' natural waterproofing and insulation, leaving them vulnerable to hypothermia or overheating.
