Blue-green algae are very highly +++ toxic.They are not actually algae, but bacteria that are capable of photosynthesis. The chlorophyll they contain, along with the phycocyanin, gives them their characteristic blue-green color.They develop in summer during prolonged high temperatures in natural waters with high nutrient input. However, they are also detected in the Baltic Sea, benefiting from their ability to fix nitrogen from the air. Under favorable conditions, they can multiply massively (algal bloom) and then become dangerous for humans and animals.Dogs are particularly at risk from bathing and especially from drinking water containing blue-green algae.<\/p>\n\n
