All tag results for 'oxygen'

Sardines anyone?

An estimated ONE MILLION fish turned up dead Tuesday in a Southern
California marina.

Biologists say the mass death was caused by choking on low-oxygen water.

This created a floating feast for pelicans, gulls and other sea life and a stinky mess for harbor authorities to clean.

We think this is a good opportunity to take a page from Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs and make "Sardine Land."

Uh-oh…

We thought all this animal mass death hoopla was over and done with, but alas, there's more!

Thousands of dead fish washed ashore a Florida state park beach on Friday.

This time, however, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission have given a logical explanation for the deadly occurrence.

Biologists believe a lack of oxygen resulted in the deaths of thousands of menhaden fish at Sebastian Inlet State Park.

In fact, to put us a little more at ease, officials say this type of fish is especially prone to dying from a lack of oxygen when they swim closer to shore in such large numbers.

Phew! Not a sign of the apocalypse then!
