Domonic acid poisoning ? Be on look out for The Birds!

Besides high levels in anchovies and other small fishes this seems to be making sea lions sick and die.  This was on one site. There does not seem to be a lot of other scientific info as the test were developed in 2012.   This was on one site:

An interesting side note:

One morning in the summer of 1961, hundreds of crazed birds attacked the seaside town of Capitola, California. The birds "cried like babies" as they dove into street lamps, crashed through glass windows, and attacked people on the ground. Most of the birds were sooty shearwaters, a normally non-aggressive species that feeds on small fish and comes ashore only to breed. This incident fascinated Alfred Hitchcock, who frequently vacationed in nearby Santa Cruz. He included newspaper clippings about the Capitola attack in his studio proposal for THE BIRDS, which appeared in cinemas two years later. The agent responsible for the attack is now widely thought to have been domoic acid.

Cool!

Well, if you have to live thru a real-life Hitchcock film, The Birds is probably better than Psycho...

Very interesting, thanks for sharing.

Man, you REALLY gonna have to hose down that yak!

You know one good thing could be less Sea Lions. I could miss one year of crab if it takes out 15% or more of the seal population.

would hopefully mean less Landlords next year as well.

I bet that was impetus for the movie which I believe was made a year or two later.

Uh.................

This is what happens when you allow cell phones in the classroom.
