 Thousands of young salmon are dead after a fish tanker truck mistakenly took a sharp corner and crashed, the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife announced Tuesday.

The truck had been transporting roughly 102,000 spring Chinook smolts — or offspring — that were ready to be released to the Imnaha River on Friday, March 29.
 

While driving along Lookingglass Creek, the 53-foot truck turned and skidded onto its passenger side before going over a rocky embankment and flipping onto its roof. The driver survived with minor injuries.

According to ODFW, about 77,000 of the salmon made it into the creek during the crash, but 25,529 died.
