Lots of dead fish!

[MONEYMAGIC]

I went for a walk today with my dog down this path and there's a stream/ditch, I sometimes let my Dog go in the water to play. Today near the start where the water flows into the stream it looked funny so I didn't let him in:

Should I get my parents to ring somebody?

[Hecktix]

Certainly something in that water, thats hundreds of dead fish.

Probably something toxic in there, erm you could try ringing the council or the RSPCA... not sure who to ring, but it is very dangerous.

[MONEYMAGIC]

I don't know who to ring either. + if I wait it too long it will spread futhur upstream and head to the sea.

[Swearwolf]

yep call the council

[flatface]

Council would be best to call, maybe the enviromental department :)

[LipsLikeSugar]

i feel sad now :(

[Hecktix]

oh & you took these pics whilst walking your dog did you?

:rolleyes:

[MONEYMAGIC]

Where did I say I took the pictures? I went today and saw this on the site yesterday that's why I went. The environment agency aint done anything about it thats why i need to know who to ring.

[Hecktix]

oh right sozz they will be onto it if its been reported like that in such a way...

it's the council afterall...

[MONEYMAGIC]

Southport Council don't care.

[Alkaz]

Ring the RSPCA, they will get the council to do something.

[VelvetClover]

That's horrible! All those poor fish :( there's definately something not normal about that, all those fish dying at once.

[shizzle]

Oh wow, that's nasty! You should take some action fast.

[Accipiter]

Is it not just a breed of salmon that has eventually died after breeding?

[Wahey]

Never seen so many dead fish of that size dead, ring somebody

[kuzkasate]

Hm... did you let your dog do something in that water?

But seriously I think you should ask your parents they will tell you whats best x

[GommeInc]

Is it not just a breed of salmon that has eventually died after breeding?
According to the website, it's quite alot of different species of fish; carp, pike etc. etc. The council should do something about it, or at least comment on a form of action. Ignoring it will only cause problems, especially as the water is used by a fishing association.

[Catzsy]

Its the environment agency thats deals with this sort of thing.
