The Ohio Department of Natural Resources has confirmed that a fish kill on the Cuyahoga River last weekend resulted from natural causes.Thousands of dead fish were found Sunday floating in the river in the Flats area near downtown Cleveland. ODNR official Jessie Janosik did the investigation. He says the species of fish involved led to the conclusion.

“It was all gizzard shad.  When the temperature fluctuates a lot, this fish can’t handle it and they die. What happened here is that the temperature has changed a lot lately and that caused the kill.”
