It seems I was right about #GambierdiscusToxicus being the cause of #sawfish deaths in #Florida. Not sure why they aren't announcing it (tourism?).
Scientists continue to search for answers as #Florida sawfish continue to die
By Heather Walker, Diana Reed
July 12, 2024"The FGCU scientists said that once again, their samples showed high levels of a microscopic algae called Gambierdiscus. It is a naturally occurring toxin that is normally harmless but can be dangerous at high levels."

Sawfish (Monterey Bay Aquarium Collection by Safari Ltd.)
0 (0 votes)
Not to be conflated with sawsharks, sawfish are a family of rays belonging to the Pristidae family. This family is distinguished by an elongated rostrum. This “saw” is equipped with specialized external “teeth” and sensory structures to aid in electroreception and prey capture. Sawfish share ancestral affinities with the […]

Six rare #sawfish deaths in 7 days have scientists baffled amid bizarre #Florida fish behavior
“There is no concrete, conclusive proof of what is happening yet and that is still to be determined, which is quite terrifying.” said Gregg Furstenwerth, a lifelong diver in the Florida Keys. “If it continues, it is going to be the end of this #ecosystem as we know it.”
By Jen Christensen, CNN
Published Apr 12, 2024
"Most tests for toxins have been negative, but scientists have seen an unusually high number of #algae called gambierdiscus that can produce a wide variety of #neurotoxins that can be harmful to fish and dangerous to humans.
#Gambierdiscus is normally found in tropical and subtropical waters all around the world, but the algae can grow quickly when waters are warmer than usual. The climate crisis has brought record hot temperatures to the waters around southern Florida."

Fish are dying in the #FloridaKeys. Scientists are getting closer to finding out why
By Heather Walker
March 12, 2024"The Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission says 27 species are now affected, primarily in the lower keys from #BigPine to #KeyWest, including the critically #endangered smalltooth #sawfish. Many have grounded themselves. As of last week, 20 have died."
