MASS MURDER APPLIED TO ANIMAL DEATHS Over 100 manatees, 300 - TopicsExpress



          

MASS MURDER APPLIED TO ANIMAL DEATHS Over 100 manatees, 300 pelicans and almost 50 dolphin were found dead along the northern stretches of the river, and biologists have no doubt that this is a serious problem. The naturally diverse lagoon that stretches for 156 miles contains more species than anywhere else in the U.S. with more than 600 species of fish and over 300 kinds of birds, and accounting for hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue from angling, bird-watching, boating, tourism and other waterfront activities. While there is no obvious cause for the latest mass animal murder, scientists believe pollution or climate change may be harming the animal populations. The mysterious manatee die-off began in 2012, with 43 of them dead in just one month, now totaling 111 dead. Biologists at a state laboratory in St. Petersburg who studied the manatees have determined that they appear to have have fallen sick and drowned, but from what is yet unclear. hngn/articles/6206/20130625/florida-lagoon-mass-murder-mystery-hundreds-marine-animals-mysteriously-dead.htm
