Most of the injured birds are not expected to survive. About 20 to 30% of the entire bird population at the lake died in the storm, according to FWP wildlife biologist Justin Paugh.

大多數(shù)受傷的鳥預計無法存活。根據(jù)野生動物生物學家賈斯汀·帕格的說法,該湖大約20%到30%的鳥類在風暴中死亡。

Local weather reports said the towns of Molt and Rapelje, both located near the wildlife management area, received two inches of hail in conditions of 70 mph winds, the press release said. The hailstorm reportedly flattened crops, shattered windows and damaged roofs and vehicles in the area.

Big Lake Wildlife Management Area’s lake and surrounding wetlands serve as the nesting areas for dozens of species of ducks, Canada geese, double-crested cormorants, shorebirds, gulls, pelicans and other waterfowl, the agency said.

該機構(gòu)說,大湖野生動物管理區(qū)的湖及其周圍的濕地,是幾十種鴨子、加拿大鵝、雙冠鸕鶿、濱鳥、海鷗、鵜鶘和其他水禽的棲息地。

Officials will continue to monitor for signs of diseases, including botulism, which is caused by rotting carcasses, in order to protect the surviving bird population.

相關(guān)工作人員將繼續(xù)監(jiān)測疾病的跡象,包括由腐爛的尸體引起的肉毒桿菌中毒,以保護幸存的鳥類種群。
