Mass die off of birds and fish washing ashore on Wasaga beach in Canada

A warning for you if you’re headed to the beach in Wasaga thanks to the summer-like temperatures: a fish die-off is underway.
 
The Ministry of Natural Resources says it doesn’t yet know the reason for the large number of dead birds and fish washing up on shore, but they suspect Type E Botulism.
 
It’s not uncommon for there to be mass die-offs in the Great Lakes.
 
You’re being asked not to handle dead or dying fish or birds.
 
Park staff are aware of the problem and are working to dispose of dead fish and birds that are found within the park.
