EDMONTON Following a recent spike in hot temperatures, hundreds of dead fish have reportedly been spotted in various lakes and rivers in Alberta.

Smith told CTV News Edmonton streams usually start to heat up late July to early August, but direct sun on waterways for upwards of 14 to 16 hours a day lower oxygen levels. “People would say to me they were seeing 10 or 15 fish float by in a matter of 10 minutes,” he said.
