It is tagic that this could have been either pevented or at least lessened if the reservoirs would have been kept at the low levels they were originally designed for and meant to be kept at so they could have received the flood waters as intended. It is a sad and tagic commentary of the world in which we now live where the lives of wildlife are of more value and importance than that of human beings. Our US Senators and Congressmen should be contacted and encouraged to launch a full investigation into the corps of engineers and the EPA and the gross negligence therein.
