Posted Thu Jun 19 2008: from Chicago Tribune:
Fish die-off near Milwaukee signals latest lakes invader may be advancing on Chicago shores http://apocadocs.com/s.pl?1213912886
"When thousands of bloody, hemorrhaging fish recently turned up on the Lake Michigan shore south of Milwaukee, it confirmed the worst fears of scientists worried that an Ebola-like virus stalking Great Lakes fish would strike closer to Chicago. The dead fish were round gobies, a small invasive species that many feel is better off dead. But unlike many other diseases that tend to hit one or two types of fish, this viral strain has led to large fish kills involving more than 30 species, including valuable sport fish such as salmon, trout, walleye, muskie, bass and perch."
