Dead Sardines Crowd California Harbor By The Millions

REDONDO BEACH, CA - MARCH 9: Workers and volunteers continue to clean up millions of dead sardines for a second day in King Harbor on March 9, 2011 in Redondo Beach, California. Wildlife experts are focusing on a theory that enormous schools of the small fish may have gotten confused or trapped in the harbor while sheltering from rough wind-driven seas then died after breathing all the available oxygen. Most of the foot-thick raft of dead fish that covered the waters on the first day after the die-off sank to the bottom of the harbor but are expected to rise again within a few days as rotting advances.
