THIS IS VERY BIZARRE.
Today I read of thousands of turtles coming up the beach or washed ashore at Coco Beach, FL. Men in haz mat suits were cutting the heads off the turtles and leaving the rest of them. People in that area protect the turtles and they are dismayed at what they see happening. WHY?

Officials from Health Canada are scrambling to deal with the sudden death of thousands of wild birds somewhere in the province.

The turtle situation was back in the summer. June, I think. I know people in Orlando who were talking about it back then. Something about the heads being collected since they're sold on the black market as trinkets or such. Pretty disgusting. I used to work for a state environmental agency. I can tell you that fish and bird kills happen a lot more frequently. It just never gets reported. Suddenly it becomes a story (because Congress was out of session) and it explodes, leading those ignorant of these things thinking there's some sort of pandemic sweeping the globe.
