‘This Is A Serious Event’: Millions Of Dead Fish Wash Ashore In Iceland, Entire Season’s Worth Of Herring Lost

02/06/2013 Leave a comment Go to comments

FoxNews – “Researchers in Iceland are blaming low oxygen levels in a shallow fjord for the deaths of tens of thousands of tons of herring.

Masses of dead herring have been found in Kolgrafafjordur fjord for the second time this winter, raising concerns about Iceland’s fishery.

The Morgunbladid newspaper estimated the value of the 10,000 tons of fish found dead this week at 1.25 billion kronur ($9.8 million). An even larger number of fish died in December.

Roughly one season’s worth of herring has been lost, Johann Sigurjonsson, director of Iceland’s Marine Research Institute, said Wednesday.

He said herring tend to winter in large populations and may have depleted the oxygen in the shallow fjord. The danger should ease in spring when the herring spread out into a wider area, he said, downplaying fears that the entire herring fishery is in danger.

‘We regard this as a serious event,’ he said. ‘We are investigating; we would like to find out if it is necessary to try to step in somehow.’

The government’s economic minister has increased funding for monitoring in the area to determine what can be done to prevent more fish from dying off.” Read more.

    Midnightwatcher, when the second angel pours out his bowl the sea becomes “as the blood of dead men”. What is the difference between the blood of a dead man, and the blood of a living man? A dead man’s blood has no oxygen!

    I just did some research..and this same thing happened in 2011 in China..and it was herring..as a result of an earthquake aftermath. I am wondering if the earthquake had something to do with this. See here: http://www.naturalnews.com/033605_China_dead_fish.html Keeping in mind, God told us these things would happen, but He did not tell us why..so it doesn’t minimize the fact that we’re in the end times. ;-) As I know you know. But some people might read my comment and think that. God bless you!

    I made a typo above..sorry. let me rephrase this. In 2011, shortly before a catastrophic 9.0+ earthquake in China, millions of fish died and were washed up on the shores. My concern is this…is there some sort of seismic catastrophe coming??? Is this a precursor to a really bad earthquake? See what I put together here: http://vineoflife.net/2013/02/06/did-the-millions-of-fish-die-because-of-the-earthquake-see-what-you-think/

      I posed a question once, about the release of methane with or before earthquakes, and it’s a real possibility. At any rate it seems like this is happening more and more lately. And I know it’s in the Bible more than just Revelation, ICA would know, I’ve forgotten where it is. This is definately prophecied. Look at the plagues of old, and compare. God is trying to get our attention, I believe we’re heading straight for the opening of the 6th seal. There are more and more earthquakes, more volcanos, more weather changing, signs in the sun, moon, and stars, it’s coming and it’s coming fast.
