Oil toxicity Oil toxicity (or oil intoxication) is a wildlife disease resulting from the accidental exposure of animals to oil. Major sources of such oil in the environment include accidental oil spills from off-shore sites, oil tankers, pipelines, and other facilities that store and process oil. Wildlife exposure to oil can result in both external and internal damage. Oil intoxication has the greatest impact on bird species, aquatic mammals, and other aquatic organisms. Affected wildlife can usually be identified via visual inspection, and can be treated if found early on.
