Quote: "As many as 2,000 leopard sharks have mysteriously died in the San Francisco Bay over the past few months. The California Department of Fish and Wildlife says determining the cause is not a priority for the state since the sharks are not threatened or endangered, however, scientists say additional research and resources are crucial since the threat is now believed to be preying on other marine life."

Between 1 per cent and 15 per cent of fish in these three fish farms died as a result of jellyfish stings."

http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/2017-10/08/c_136665237.htm

Quote: "A suspected anthrax outbreak has killed 107 hippos in one of Namibia's biggest game parks in the Zambezi region in Namibia in just one week. The park's deputy director Apollinaris Kannyinga confirmed the deaths Sunday at Bwabwata National Park. Kannyinga said the first 10 deaths were reported on Oct. 1 but had risen by the end of the week. 'We suspect an anthrax outbreak, but our veterinary is still yet to confirm that,' Kannyinga said. He also said that this was the first time such a deadly outbreak has hit Namibia."

Note: So they don't know what killed them, though they suspect anthrax, even though that's never happened there before. I wouldn't be jumping to any conclusions if I were them. Hippos live in and near water...

http://www.desdemonadespair.net/2017/10/empty-nets-signal-trouble-for-columbia.html

Quote: "Scientists have been hauling survey nets through the ocean off the coasts of Washington and Oregon for 20 years. But this is the first time some have come up empty. 'We were really worrying if there was something wrong with our equipment,' said David Huff, estuarine and ocean ecology program manager in the fish ecology division at NOAA Fisheries. 'We have never hauled that net through the water looking for salmon or forage fish and not gotten a single salmon. Three times we pulled that net up, and there was not a thing in it. We looked at each other, like, "this is really different than anything we have ever seen." It was alarming.'"

2017-10-12 - Fish mysteriously die off in multiple ponds in central Illinois:
http://www.wandtv.com/story/36586015/fish-kill-claims-private-ponds

Quote: "Carter owns one of several ponds that have suffered massive fish kills in the past week, especially after weekend rains.  The cause of those fish kills is a mystery. 'My first thought was poison.  Chemical poison of some sort and I mean that’s where my mind went immediately,' Carter stated."

Note: So some hydrogen sulfide blows through the area, settles to the ground, adsorbs onto grass and dirt and whatever. Then rain comes and washes it into the ponds where it kills fish. Or hydrogen sulfide, which is water-soluble, dissolves into the rain before it even falls from the sky and then you have scattered pockets of poison rain pouring down, and that too flows down to the lowest area around, like ponds. Either way, not gonna be good. And poison rain could just flat-out kill anyone nowadays too. 41 children and some animals mysteriously died after rainfall in Papua (Indonesia), mentioned in the 2015-11-24 update. A bunch of people died in Australia from 'thunderstorm asthma' a few months ago after rain storms there too. How many of the people who've mysteriously dropped dead have been rained on in the hours or days before they fell over dead? How many had taken showers or baths using water from contaminated outdoor reservoirs? How many had been in saunas or hot tubs or swimming pools? We'll never know...
