Massive Fish Kill

Dead sea life covers a Louisiana waterway, including fish, stingrays, eels and crabs. This is also the area hit hard by the BP gulf oil spill. Although fish kills occur frequently during the summer in the Gulf Coast along the Mississippi, the wide-ranging all encompassing kill that we see presently does not correspond with the norm. Normal fish kills usually only involve a die-off of a single species of fish. The magnification of the current fish kill may be an after-effect of the BP oil spill.

No tests have been conducted to determine the relation of this fish kill to the BP oil spill.
