Introduction

Litter is the improper disposal of waste products through human activities (Berglund, Koivula & Eeva 2011). Why people litter?

A promenade is a public walkway, typically along the sea front.

The Walvis Bay lagoon attracts a range of 47 species of coastal water birds that include the greater & lesser flamingos.

Littering is a major threat to the environment & has increasingly become a cause of concern in the flamingos (Kozlov, Zvereva & Zverev 2009).

Litter can cause serious internal and external injuries to flamingos resulting to death (Eeva, Koivunen & Hakkarainen 2002)
