Exxon valdez oil spill?

how did exxon valdez oil spill effect the ocean? and the land, if ther is pic how it effect the land or ocean what web siteExxon valdez oil spill?
The captain of the ship was intoxicated at the time of the crash. He ran into an barrier reef. Tons of animals died. The best estimates are: 250,000 sea birds, 2,800 sea otters, 300 harbor seals, 250 bald eagles, up to 22 orcas, and billions of salmon and herring eggsExxon valdez oil spill?
i did a project on this a few yrs ago.....it really affected the populations of sea otters. the oil killed a lot of them because their fur actually keeps them warm and their skin dry. when the fur was soiled, they got wet and cold and a lot died. only a few were actually rescued :'(
