Here is a list of the animals killed by the spill, as detailed by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources:

Officials estimated 38,222 minnows and around 5,550 other species – such as other fish, crayfish and amphibians – were killed during the derailment. The deaths occurred in a five-mile span within the impact area.

I am amazed they did not mention the many millions of mosquitoes killed!

That's a very poorly worded statement. I assume it was supposed to be:

"Officials estimated 38,222 minnows and around 5,550 animals of other species – such as other fish, crayfish and amphibians – were killed during the derailment."
