Researchers are worried about the effects of global warming after a loon in Umbagog Lake tested positive for avian malaria.

The loon was found last summer in the lake, which straddles northern Maine and New Hampshire. Necropsy showed that the bird died of avian malaria – the first confirmed case of the disease among loons in either state.

Here is the key quote, at the end of the article:

"I certainly wouldn’t be concerned at this point in time, not having other cases," said Lovitch, co-owner of the Wild Bird Center in Freeport. "I have not heard of it spreading. I can’t say I’ve heard of it being a concern in the general birding community."

So tell me again, how is this some malaria epidemic caused by Global Warming?

When it comes to loons, I blame the DNC.

Clearly nothing to do with Global Warming, it’s obviously Cruz evil campaign tactics.....

...oh...the quantity of evidence for either is the same......

Anything attributed to Global Warming is due to scientists motivated by Global Warming funds.

Egad. They will name anything on "man made" global warming! Loons winter in the Gulf of Mexico mostly but sometimes as far south as Central America.

The loon brought it northward upon his return. The author s.b. ashamed of himself but crazy loon liberals never are
