Poooooot just take you up on this thread. As it's your thread and the title has (tracker) in it wouldn't be interesting to plot these mass die off's on a map and post it in this thread...If I had the time I would do it for you. But I don't have the time...But if you can't do it your self I'm sure one of your........DTV friends would be glad to score a few brawny point with you. Or even one of the Mods with nothing to do.

When I was growing up one of our local rivers had mass die off's on a two to three year cycle.. But that was down to the industrial complex based up river dumping toxins into the river. It was cheaper to suffer the fine for doing that than pay the cost proper disposal. Fine was about $1000 cost of proper disposal. $8000.. Things have changed now as the local people would no longer put with it..

Thousands of dead prawns and crabs have washed up on a beach in Concepcion, Chile, baffling authorities who say it may be an environmental crime.

Chile is investigating the death of thousands of prawns that washed ashore carpeting the beach in red.

The shrimp washed up on Tuesday in Coronel, some 330 miles (530 kilometres) south of the capital Santiago.

Local fishermen accuse thermoelectric plants of dumping residue into the ocean and contaminating the waters.

1,000 dead ducks found in Chinese river as pig clean-up reaches 16,000

Around 1,000 dead ducks have been pulled from a river in southwest China’s Sichuan province. Residents found the rotten carcasses floating downstream in woven bags.

The ducks, which were found in the Nanhe River in Meishan city, have been disinfected with lime and buried 3 meters underground, deputy director of Pengshan County’s publicity office, Liang Weidong, told China National Radio.

According to Liang, the ducks are believed to have been washed downward from upstream and accumulated in the Pengshan section of the river due to lack of water in the dry season. Although the origin of the ducks remains unknown, Liang warned that farmers who discard their dead ducks in public places face heavy punishment.

Officials were unable to determine a cause of death, as some of the ducks were already decomposed.

Despite worries from nearby residents, Liang insisted that the incident poses no threat to drinking water, nor does it endanger residents and livestock along the river banks.

Reports of the floating duck carcasses come just as the toll of dead pigs pulled from China’s Huangpu River surpassed 16,000.

The swine incident has sparked national health and safety concerns, largely due to the fact that 22 per cent of Shanghai’s drinking water comes from the Huangpu.

The origin of the pig carcasses remains a mystery, with Shanghai saying its farms have not reported an epidemic which would kill pigs in such large numbers.

Workers have been pulling dead pigs from the river for the past two weeks, with Shanghai pulling out 10,924 dead pigs as of Sunday afternoon.

On Sunday, the government released a statement that the work of fishing out the dead pigs was “basically finished.”

But the end of one sanitation incident has seemingly marked the beginning of another - and Chinese residents have taken to social networking sites to express their concern.

"The dead ducks in Pengshan River present us with a very practical problem, and show how society's bottom line is getting lower and lower," a member of weibo - China’s version of Twitter - said.

The scandals have highlighted China's troubles with food safety, adding the country's most popular meat to a growing list of food items rocked by controversy.

The discovery of 900 dead pigs in a Shanghai river was worrying enough. However, that number now appears to be a massive underestimation — the latest reports suggest that there may have been more like 16,000 dead pigs floating in the river.
As if this weren't cause enough for concern, Danwei points to more reports in Chinese media about dead ducks and dead pigs. Perhaps the ducks are unrelated, but the 50 dead pigs in Hunan province are certainly an alarming coincidence.
What's most alarming might be the geography here. Check out this map, which shows the approximate location of the first discovery of dead pigs (the Jiaxing area of Zhejiang province), and the new one (Changsha, Hunan). They are over 628 miles apart via road.

People are starting to get a little concerned — Patrick Chovanec, the Chief Strategist at Silvercrest Asset Management, tweeted the Danwei story with a note: "Something really strange is going on."
While a farmer has confessed to dumping the dead pigs in the Shanghai river, the sight of the pigs seems to be affecting consumer confidence in pork. Taiwanese news outlet WantChinaTimes cites Ministry of Commerce data that shows wholesale prices of pork have fallen for four consecutive weeks as of March 17, accumulated decline over the period reaching eight percent.
