An important film about river poisoning.
For decades fish and game agencies have attempted to restore native fish and eradicate undesireable fish in targeted streams and lakes. One common method is to use fish poisons - called piscicides - primarily Rotenone and Antimycin A. In many cases the same non-native fish being targeted for removal were originally stocked by fish and game agencies decades earlier.

  • @bhitt99 if you look up Rotenone it was used by tribes people in the topics to poison fish for hundreds of years. its from the roots of some tropical plant. in waters above 70 degrees it vanishes quickly. like within 24-48 hours. little bit more for colder but not much. its harmless to warmblooded animals and works because it blocks the oxygen recepticals in the gills of a fish. pretty safe if you ask me.

  • Also would like to state enzymes in warm blooded animals breaks down rotenone.

  • Rotenone is not toxic to warm blooded animals. It is found in many natural plants and is great for a bug out bag if u ask me..

  • All this poison gets washed down stream and we all end up drinking this stuff, and our children will swim and play in it. They poisoned all of the Potomac to kill off the snakehead invasion, and the snakehead was the only thing that survived...

  • Omg we are gonna drink this too....

  • this is disgusting. how can anyone do this and sleep at night?!?

  • @jonflamion that is easy to understand but what is difficult to understand is what unknown consequences may occur to such a massive amount of poison being dumped into fresh water. Man is an arrogant asshole sometimes.

  • This makes me sick to my stomach. Unbelieveablely insane. What kind of level ofeducation have these people attained to make comments like"the animals that sustain themselves on the habitat of the lake "MAY" see a diminishment of their food supply". Let me get this straight. You just poured gallons of poison into a lake or river, completely annihilating everything without prejudice and you think the other animals won't notice?

  • It's HARD for me to see THIS !!! Catastrophic

  • Western or Islamic Capitalism will kill everything....
