Thousands of dead herring have been discovered washed up on a north Norwegian beach - prompting Doomsday predictors to hail it as another sign the world is set to end.There are theories of course:
More than 20 tonnes of the fish is currently carpeting the beach of Kvaenes, in Nordreisa, with experts views differing on how they have come to be there. One thing is for sure, it will provide welcome ammunition to those believing the Mayan prophecy that 2012 will bring the end of Earth.
"...Maybe the fish have been caught in a deprived oxygen environment, and then died of fresh water?'... Experts have said the school could have been trapped by tidal waters after predatory fish - such as coalfish - chased them towards the shoreline. . . the fish were washed ashore during a recent storm, or trapped in shallow waters and affected by freshwater from a river that flows into the bay... several factors could have come together at once. . . they had died of a disease.
The article ends with a mention of Beebee, Arkansas.
