Quite interesting that thought re the Gulf Oil Spill, then the latter spraying of Blackbirds & Starlings ( we have the same/similar birds here)
Terrible Man Made Disasters
Dont mind saying i had a similar thought re our Snapper Deaths, cept i was casually attributing ours possibly to recent Natural occurences,
ie
The quite Major earthquake we suffered several months ago, even now aftershocks continuing ( in fact one the other day was almost as large as the original/same area)
Anyway, since that quake there were several Whale strandings ( we have quite a few NZ) but these latest were partially attributed to the Quakes, (who knows how severe the aftershocks are down the ocean floor etc) and the Whales possibly losing there bearings ..
Perhaps the Snapper were similarly affected
No Doubt many a scientist will pooh pooh the idea as quickly as i / and perhaps many other similar thinkers have surmised it.
enz
after shock/after thought
Geuss it makes the Japanese Whaling for food/not study .. sort of feasible and fair?
(of course does not make it fair & right tho huh>> mmm human dilemmas.) ha
