DNR Monitoring Fish Kill at Loon Lake
Iowa Ag Connection - 06/24/2022
The Iowa DNR reported Thursday that fisheries biologists collected fish and water samples at Loon Lake Wednesday as the result of a fish kill involving thousands of crappies that began earlier this week.
Samples were provided yesterday afternoon to the Animal Disease Diagnostic Laboratory at Purdue University for testing regarding a cause. Results are not expected for weeks.
Because no significant numbers of other dead small fish species have been observed, the cause is not believed to be the result of a toxic event such as a chemical spill or release.
Biologists will continue to monitor the situation over the coming weeks.
