Animals dying after Ohio train derailment.
#3
There were so many ways this was a tragedy that was inevitable. The train needed upgrades. Safety protocols were not being followed. They hauled dangerous chemicals through a residential area. There was a lot of the chemical on the train. They had no real plan to deal with a derailment of a toxic chemical train.

People in the area will probably have negative health effects. I am sure their pets will have problems.
Things were so toxic that fish died right away.

This is not the first serious derailment/train accident. 
This happened just west of Toronto in 1979.

The emergency was handled really well and there have not been long term consequences.

All these years later, they did not even come close to handling things well.

Health problems have already started.

Sadly it is always nature that suffers the worst. No one evacuated the wild animals. They will continue to die and they will not know why.
