MALLORCA TODAY - Dead fish in La Gola

Hundreds of dead young sea bass were retrieved from the La Gola canal in Puerto Pollensa yesterday. The fish are presumed to have died as a consequence of suffocating in the water which, it is argued by local residents, has not been dredged by the regional government environment ministry and so impedes sea water coming into the canal. The dead fish are by no means the first ones in La Gola, which local people have condemned because of the lack of maintenance.
