"the time we hit Leslie itself outside of a few dying cranefly larvae and some Allegheny crayfish that were still somehow barely clinging to life everything was dead. Loads of salamanders (mostly 2 lined, a few duskys, and a random redback),
green and bullfrogs, sculpin, darters of all local varieties, stonerollers, and dace littered the bottom (after the creek had been "cleaned" several times). All the alge covering the rocks was black and rotting, and all the rocks on the bank were
covered in a thick white crystalline film. Soon we were walking on a carpet of death, the numbers of dead wildlife now much more numerous. The weird thing was we could see everywhere someone had been "cleaning up" all the death and the spots hit hardest were in front of
the few higher class residences. That may be a coincidence.. "
