Italian City Litered with Dead Turtle Doves

The recent reports of birds falling to their death in Beebe, Arkansas was shocking to a lot of people, but since that mysterious night new reports of other unexplainable animal deaths are pouring in.

Why are we making light of it, Aflockalypse may sound like a cute nickname, but are we going to sweep this under a rug and pretend it's no big deal. Two million fish found dead in Maryland, thousands of birds falling to their deaths in several unrelated locations; Louisiana, Arkansas, Kentucky, Sweden and now Italy. Forty thousand crabs washing up on beaches in England and we jokingly call it Aflockalypse.

Fireworks, cold weather, lightening, hail storms, and reports that this is simply a natural occurence that happens all the time certainly are not the answers many people want to hear. When will we receive some real sensible explanations? With all of the technology we have at our fingertips, yet officials, scientists, wildlife groups no one can provide a believable reason.

According to one report by Travis Walter Donovan of the Huffington Post, "GeaPress suggests that the blue stains found in mouths of the dead and dying birds in Italy could be the result of poisoning or possibly signs of hypoxia." This at least gives some sort of reason or explanation for the dead turtle doves found in an Italian city, however the fact that it is only a suggestion diminishes the statements value.

Do a search on the Internet, you will find many reports, articles and comments about these mind-boggling animal deaths. When scientist, environmentalist, pet vet's and other officials are shaking their heads and taking wild guesses it does make the average person wonder what is really going on.

Paul Joseph Watson and Alex Jones have an article that was posted on 2011 January 3rd titled "Is Mass Bird and Fish Die Off Connected to Government Testing? which offers some very thought provoking suggestions about what may be the cause of the sudden animal deaths. Keep in mind this article is dated and was on their website prior to the reports of Italy's dead turtle doves. It does raise some extremely valid points, do some research on the topics discussed. For example, read The New York Times article by Donald G. McNeil Jr. published on 2011 October 1 entitled, U.S. Apologizes for Syphilis Tests in Guatemala that Alex Jones and Paul Watson refer to in their article, and ask yourself should I be laughing at media jokes or demanding some answers.

The Aflockalypse, however jovial its meaning, may very well be a sign of the end times created by mankind.
