Quote: "A woman called the wildlife hospital sounding quite frantic. She had been watching a bald eagle in the pond behind her home when she stepped away for a minute to get her binoculars. When she returned, the eagle was splayed out in the water and appeared lifeless. The woman was fairly certain the eagle was dead, but we did ask her to retrieve the eagle to be sure and bring it to the hospital so we could perform an examination."
Quote: "Hospital staff examined the eagle for any obvious signs of injury. The eagle was well muscled and had no apparent injuries. A radiograph was taken to determine if the bird could have possibly been a gunshot victim. While the radiograph was negative for metal, an egg was clearly identified – the eagle was a gravid female."

http://www.680news.com/2016/12/28/new-species-wash-ashore-in-nova-scotia-following-deaths-of-herring-2/
Quote: "A marine mystery is confounding residents of southwest Nova Scotia who are watching thousands of dead fish, starfish, crabs, clams, scallops and lobster wash up on the shore. Residents of Plympton, a small community in Digby County, say they have been finding dead herring on the shore of St. Mary's Bay for more than a month, but recently other marine life has started washing up dead. Dead fish have also been found on the shores of the Annapolis Basin. 'We started finding starfish, crabs, flounder. We found ocean perch and then yesterday we started finding scallops on the beach and like I said everything's dead... we'd like to know what's going on,' said Karl Cole."
Quote: "Leighton said he's most struck by the assortment of species Hewey and others found on Boxing Day. Other than most likely all being from the bottom of St. Mary's Bay, Leighton can't see any other obvious link."
Note: Hydrogen sulfide emanates from the bottom of bodies of water, so the fact that the creatures that are dying here are all bottom-dwellers is a big clue. This all started at least as far back as 2002, when marine life started fleeing the depths off the coast of the Pacific Northwest, but now the problem is spreading around the world. In the Permian-Triassic extinction event, around 96% of marine species went extinct. The extinction event currently under way looks to be a repeat of the Permian-Triassic extinction event, so marine life will die off the hardest (as has already been the case over the past several years), but most species on land - 70% or more - will also die, especially species that require lots of oxygen or which reproduce/mature slowly, like human beings...

Quote: "A woman called the wildlife hospital sounding quite frantic. She had been watching a bald eagle in the pond behind her home when she stepped away for a minute to get her binoculars. When she returned, the eagle was splayed out in the water and appeared lifeless. The woman was fairly certain the eagle was dead, but we did ask her to retrieve the eagle to be sure and bring it to the hospital so we could perform an examination."
Quote: "Hospital staff examined the eagle for any obvious signs of injury. The eagle was well muscled and had no apparent injuries. A radiograph was taken to determine if the bird could have possibly been a gunshot victim. While the radiograph was negative for metal, an egg was clearly identified – the eagle was a gravid female."

Quote: "A marine mystery is confounding residents of southwest Nova Scotia who are watching thousands of dead fish, starfish, crabs, clams, scallops and lobster wash up on the shore. Residents of Plympton, a small community in Digby County, say they have been finding dead herring on the shore of St. Mary's Bay for more than a month, but recently other marine life has started washing up dead. Dead fish have also been found on the shores of the Annapolis Basin. 'We started finding starfish, crabs, flounder. We found ocean perch and then yesterday we started finding scallops on the beach and like I said everything's dead... we'd like to know what's going on,' said Karl Cole."
Quote: "Leighton said he's most struck by the assortment of species Hewey and others found on Boxing Day. Other than most likely all being from the bottom of St. Mary's Bay, Leighton can't see any other obvious link."
Note: Hydrogen sulfide emanates from the bottom of bodies of water, so the fact that the creatures that are dying here are all bottom-dwellers is a big clue. This all started at least as far back as 2002, when marine life started fleeing the depths off the coast of the Pacific Northwest, but now the problem is spreading around the world. In the Permian-Triassic extinction event, around 96% of marine species went extinct. The extinction event currently under way looks to be a repeat of the Permian-Triassic extinction event, so marine life will die off the hardest (as has already been the case over the past several years), but most species on land - 70% or more - will also die, especially species that require lots of oxygen or which reproduce/mature slowly, like human beings...

Quote: "A dead whale has washed up in the same area of western Nova Scotia that has seen scores of dead herring, starfish, clams and lobster litter the shoreline — but fisheries officials say it’s too early to say whether the deaths are related."
Quote: "She said the humpback whale did not appear to have any external injuries that could easily explain its death."
