Over 12,500 fish have been killed in 13 separate incidents in Irish waterways this year, we can reveal.

The data, provided by Iascach Intíre Éireann following an information request, shows almost half of them perished in Cork’s Allow River but the cause hasn’t been identified yet.

The notable spawning habitat is in a Special Area of Conservation. Dead fish spotted up to 4km downstream of the source included vulnerable Atlantic salmon whose numbers have fallen 60% in the last four decades as well as brown trout, lamprey, eel, stone loach, roach and dace.
