Fish kill hotline established
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) has established a fish kill hotline. Residents are asked to call 800-636-0511 to report fish kills, diseased fish, or fish with other abnormalities. Please leave a detailed report and contact information on the recorded message. A biologist will contact the caller, usually the following workday, if more information is needed.
