Another New 'Happening' Has Been Reported,

up to 300 dead birds have been found the I-65 highway, in Alabama, but it appears these were hit by a truck, the bodies of the birds were identified as grackles, members of the same specie have also been found dead in their hundreds recently in Arkansas, Louisiana and Kentucky, the Alabama deaths are just the latest in a series of mass animal deaths around the world that have spurred conspiracy theories all over the Internet, the blackbirds fell out of the sky on New Year's Eve in Arkansas, then it was two million fish in the Chesapeake Bay, 150 tons of red tilapia in Vietnam, 40,000 crabs in Britain and other places across the world, I must admit I did not know of the 150 tons of red tilapia in Vietnam,

but in reality these are almost everyday happenings according to scientists, since the 1970s, the U.S. Geological Surveys National Wildlife Health Center in Wisconsin has tracked mass deaths among birds, fish and other critters, said wildlife disease specialist LeAnn White, in the past eight months, the USGS has logged 95 mass wildlife die-offs in North America and that's probably a dramatic under count, Dr White said, the list includes 900 turkey vultures that seemed to drown and starve in the Florida Keys, 4,300 ducks killed by parasites in Minnesota, 1,500 salamanders done in by a virus in Idaho, 2,000 bats that died of rabies in Texas, and the still mysterious death of 2,750 sea birds in California, on average, 163 such events are reported to the federal government each year, according to USGS records, so that's a relief, well I am not to sure about the 2,000 bats that died of rabies, I mean how many live ones are still out there!
