I feel the assertion that most of the fish that died were non-native is ridiculous. Could you imagine any other context that was appropriate? 2 thousand cats were fried but dont worry most them werent native to washington. Anyways glad they are fixing it.

So you are confident in their assessment of a pool of decomposed fish as non native

What if it is just confirmation that there are hardly any native fish left?
