Nearly 800,000 salmon babies died from a mysterious disease after they were just released into a river to help improve their population in the stream. The Chinook salmon died early last week after officials from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife released them into the Klamath River, which is situated above the Iron Gate Dam tunnel near at the California- border. The dam on the 257-mile river was removed in November in an effort to let salmon, Pacific lamprey and steelheads access their habitat and to lower the presence of poor water quality.
