Local Fish Dying By The Hundreds

Don,
Whatever the cause, this is a sad sight. Hundreds of dead Northern Pike at the outlet from the Riel Lagoon into the Sturgeon River.

SINC SAYS:
Those are indeed awful pictures Elke. One is left to wonder what would cause such an event? Elke tells me this has been reported to the proper federal and provincial authorities. It will be interesting to determine the cause.


READER RESPONSE:
Hi Don,
The dead fish in the Sturgeon river is a yearly occurrence. Here is an image from Dec 1st, 2002. They die off from lack of oxygen in the water.
