Answer:

Oil contamination at sea may potentially have an impact on the birds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Although the great cormorant is also prevalent in the Persian Gulf, photographs of badly oiled cormorants from the Gulf were frequently shown in the western media during the First Gulf War, and it is likely that many of these were Socotra cormorants.
