Hundreds of fish dying due to cold weather in Samut Prakan, more cold weather coming

Samut Prakan-

The cold weather in Thailand is beginning to have an effect on local wildlife and fish as hundreds of fish were found dead floating in a lake in Prueksa Village this morning.

Aquatic experts stated that the temperatures which have been around 18C in the area are highly unusual for the fish and have caused a mass die-off.

Local fisherman stated to the media that if the cold weather continues for an extended period of time it could have serious effects on their livelihoods.

For now, the current cold snap is expected to last at least through Tuesday.
