Tens of thousands of salmon returned to rivers to spawn in Canada have been killed in a drought.
<Oh!
Click> The first search term is '60,000 salmon killed'.
The river is almost dry and the bottom is exposed, full of dead salmon.
Some salmon were still panting, but it seems difficult to survive.
It is estimated that about 65,000 salmon died, of which more than 70% did not even spawn.
An expert explained, "The rain that fell here ten days ago gave the salmon a wrong start signal."

Salmon are born in the clear water of an upstream valley, go to the sea, and return to the river where they were born during the spawning season to lay eggs and die.
However, since the rain 10 days ago, a severe drought has continued, and the salmon, which can no longer migrate due to lack of water, have withered and died.
Salmon is also a source of protein for various animals such as bears, wolves, and eagles, but it is explained that the death of salmon can adversely affect the local ecosystem.
Netizens responded, "The climate crisis has made it difficult to find a hometown, which is the instinct of salmon."
