The island's residents are seeing dead eels and fish floating in the water, as fuel-soaked seabirds limp onto shore. A Japanese ship MV Wakashio ran aground on July 25. The ship was carrying 4,000 tonnes of fuel oil and one of its oil tanks, containing about 1,000 tonnes of fuel oil, ruptured, fouling the coastline of Mauritius. Mauritian PM Pravind Jugnauth has declared the oil spill a national emergency, but some residents say he acted too late. (Pictures/AFP)
