“New mass death of fish in Australia”
“Thousands of fish have been hit by a new outbreak of mass in the river system of the Murray-Darling in Australia. It is for the third time in a couple months as the fish die in masses in the of the drought severely affected the area.”
“– There are lots of dead fish… lots of the larger fish have already died in the two previous outbreaks, ” says Rob Gregory who are employed in the tourism industry in the small town of Menindee in the state of New South Wales.”
“the Government blames massdöden of fish on the drought, but experts and residents claim that the reason is the over-exploitation of water from the river system, and pollution. Authorities have tried to oxygenate the water to prevent additional fish from dying.”
“the leader of the Opposition Bill Shorten demands that the government act, and call fiskdöden for an ecological disaster.”
