A dead horseshoe crab covered in oil lies on the beach, surrounded by tar balls from the BP oil spill, in Gulfport, Mississippi, June 30, 2010. Mississippi had been largely spared from the effects of the Deepwater Horizon oil rig explosion April 20, 2010, but winds from Hurricane Alex began pushing oil ashore earlier this week, affecting beaches from Biloxi to Pass Christian.
