It has been stated in the limited city based media coverage that the fish kills were a natural event; however the incident is more closely linked to poor state and federal government mmanagement of the water resources.
On the 4th October 2010, 4,000 + ML/day of blackwater was recorded flowing into the Wakool River via the Thule and Barbers Creeks, however the authorities reduced the flow in the Wakool River to just 400ML

To think that this incompetant authority had it in it's power to prevent the kill if it had firstly had any knowledge or understanding and secondly taken heed of the loud and frequent warnings of those who actually have knowledge and care for the system is heartbreaking. Five million is not enough.

This is also the food source for some flying and terrestriall creatures, which means that they will also be adversely affected. Our native fauna are already struggling to survive in human invaded and destroyed habitats. Lets help them by helping this river system. Yes nature will fix it, but far slower than we are capable.
