They froze to death. The Ice Age is coming, triggered by Global Warming. Or, eh, they fried to death. Global Warming is coming, triggered by the Ice Age.

Lobsters are turning black. Gulls are falling from the sky. And our birds' heads are falling off!
You forgot,,,,,

The Last Wave?
Ah, the mysterious Kerry bird of New Zealand.
It often decides not to fly before it is actually done flying.
Those evil ranchers shouldn't have interfered with the governments efforts to control cow farts.

It's Dan Quail's fault.
And that's a terrible way to lose a gullfriend, let me tell you . . .
