The Coast Guard already has ruled out that the orange material, which some people described as having a semi-solid feel to it, was man-made or a petroleum product.
That leaves algae as the best guess, said village administrator Janet Mitchell.
The concern is if it’s somehow harmful. What will it do to fish, which villagers will soon start catching to stock up for winter, or the caribou currently being hunted, or the berries?

Slime, slime, everywhere a slime,
Blockin’ out the scenery, breakin’ my mind.
Do this, don’t do that can’t you see the slime?
