Reports of mysterious tar balls are popping up on beaches in South Florida as the U.S. Coast Guard looks to investigate the source of the sticky substance.
The balls consist of dark pieces of oil, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
"While some tar balls may be as large as pancakes, most are coin-sized…Tar balls are very persistent in the marine environment and can travel hundreds of miles," according to NOAA.
