Big Winnie Losing Blue Bills

Some 3000 Blubill Ducks have died on Lake Winnebigoshish near Deer River. Jean Goad, Northeast Public Information Officer for the DNR says a parasite from a snail may be the culprit. She tells KLKS while eagles and other scavengers have been having a feast, it is not recommended that people consume ill waterfowl. Wildlife officials expect the die-off to continue.
