Timeline of recent mysterious bird, fish deaths (something is wrong)
Timeline of recent mysterious bird, fish deaths ^

Posted on 01/12/2011 4:02:22 AM PST by Scythian

The recent mysterious deaths of birds and fish are causing alarm among naturalists around the world. Birds are literally falling dead out of the sky, and fish are washing up dead on shores and rivers across North America and around the world. The reaction from the mainstream media seems strangely subdued, as if they're all just blowing this off as some unexplained quirk about the natural world that should be largely ignored.

NaturalNews readers think differently. We are concerned when thousands of dead birds fall out of the sky for no apparent reason. The sky itself may not be falling, but previously live animals are clearly falling out of it. If that's not enough reason to wonder what the heck is happening to our planet, then what is?

These are clear signs that something is wrong. Red flags from nature, if you will. Here's the timeline of recent deaths that have been reported:

I wonder, world wide, how many events like this are always happening?

I think if we actually investigated it, it would be a far more common occurrence than we realize. The world is a very big place, with billions of creatures on it. Probably right now, as I'm typing this, somewhere out there, there's violent electrical storms, blizzards, flash floods, tornadoes, horrible straight line winds, searing temperatures, etc, etc, etc. It just happens to be that the media has decided it's more important. Kind of like them deciding that right wing political rhetoric is responsible for lunatic killing sprees.

Could be true. However, the “its just reported more these days” or “they just decided to report it” rationalizations may catch us with our pants down someday on something important.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait...wait...don’t tell me! Don’t tell me! Something vaguely to do either with the end of the world as we know it, the Anti-Christ, global warming, or a filthy combination of all three! Right?

No, silly. It's because of CERN shooting all those particles around. Betcha they went right through the core of the Earth to where the creatures were found. Those birds and fish got hit with something.

Recall the so-called summer of the shark, when it seemed every beach had a man-killer devouring hapless swimmers.

Then someone did the math, and it turned out the number of attacks was slightly below average globally. It's just that the media was reporting them all in screaming detail, making it seem like an onslaught.

Hundreds of thousands of birds, fish, and small animals died just after the Icelandic volcano eruption.. nobody paid any attention at all, as they were only worried about getting muffy & biff back home from their French vacation..

Nature happens.

BTW, that was 2 million dead fish in the Chesapeake Bay, not tens of thousands

From the article:

The reaction from the mainstream media seems strangely subdued, as if they're all just blowing this off as some unexplained quirk about the natural world that should be largely ignored.

From dirtboy:

Hardly a surprise. Y'all need to read less conspiracy stuff and more actual science.

You're right of course, I've read about this phenomenon from different and more scholarly sources than the "main stream media" and it is not new that birds are falling out of the sky and fish are washing up on shore. There is nothing new under the sun.

Perhaps a little more this year than normal or perhaps not. You know what would be really weird? That is if exactly the same number of fish and birds died that way every year.

Just another example of the press and tin foil hat types creating news, sensationalism is all it is, scare the masses, shock 'em, even if you have to fudge the numbers to do it.

Rationalization?

No. I think that all the breathless reporting these past 15 years or so of man-made global warming has got me into the habit of not trusting everything that comes out in the media. I want more facts.

I'm questioning whether or not these occurrences are abnormally high? I do know for a fact that today's media absolutely relishes hype and sensitization!

I spelled check, and selected the wrong choice. Should be sensationalism of course, not sensitization!

Anything to distract the voters from the miserable failure that is the 0 administration.

Try reading the Book of Revelations in that Bible thingy. (1)
This mass die-off of Birds and Fish is part of the breaking of the 'Seven Seals'.

I'm new to this topic so don't flame me. I'm curious. It seems, from the reports I've read, that these incidents usually involve only one species. (That impression may have come from the way these incidents are reported and not from the true facts.)

If there were some poisoning, or some sort of shock, wouldn't multiple species in the same environment be affected?

Bullcrap. We had near-record cold in December. Y’all are just looking for reasons to get all alarmist. That’s what Natural News and its readership is all about.

Okay, let's the scientific reason you have instead just denying.

If it's just the cold explain why this has never happened before during cold snaps.

We need more science because science The Truth.

Take global warming science, for example. That is where the high priests of The Truth Temple made sure no sinful deniers were permitted to publish any conflicting data with The Truth. Give Algore and the UN your alms and they’ll cool the planet. Vote for Obammy and the seas will roll back.

Science is as corrupt as everything else with motives of personal profit and power. Sad, but that is The Truth.

That's because most 'naturalists' are not biologists and don't realize that deaths like this happen every day world wide and have been happenings since the dawn of time.

In fact, it is so common, you have places in the USA name 'Fishkill' etc.

Somehow this has to be linked to Palin I’m just not sure how yet.
