2 Million Dead Fish

Friday, September 18th, 2009

Two million dead fish are causing a stink in a section of the Neuse River in North Carolina. The dead fish are mostly young Atlantic Menhaden.

It’s believed that the fish were killed from oxygen poor water caused by winds.

It’s the biggest fish kill in a decade on that river. Last year, a half million fish were killed in the area, also because of a lack of oxygen.
