"Sick Sawfish Spin to Mysterious Deaths in South Florida Waters"
Scientists are puzzled by the mysterious deaths of hundreds of fish, including the critically endangered smalltooth sawfish, washing up on South Florida shores. The fish are exhibiting abnormal behavior, spinning and whirling onto shore, and researchers are unable to determine the cause despite extensive testing. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission and other agencies are working to solve the environmental mystery, with concerns raised about potential harmful algal blooms or neurotoxins. Efforts to rescue sick sawfish are underway, as the population has been severely impacted by habitat loss and fishing bycatch. Residents are advised not to consume fish from affected areas, and public participation in reporting unusual fish behavior is encouraged.
