Dunkard Creek fish kill

There are reports of a massive killing of aquatic animals in Dunkard Creek, Greene County. Fish, salamanders, mussels...all being found. This is a really bad situation.

From the Pittsburgh Channel
From Hunting PA

update 10.4: Could the problem have been the introduction of a non-native algae?

What ate that Carp?


Otter? Raccoon? Maniac mutant squirrels? Whatever it was, that was a nice-sized carp. That's my minnow bucket above it for scale. It's intact head is to the left, and to the right you can see it's anal fin and how it's tail curves upward just behind that. The view of the skull is from beneath 'cause it's a little twisted.
