DEAD SARDINES WASH UP ON SHORE Dead sardines line the shore at following the latest mass fish mortality event. Hundreds of dead sardines have been washing up along the Western Cape shoreline. Laboratory tests confirmed the presence of pilchard herpesvirus (PHV) in affected fish. However, the Department of Forestry, Fisheries and the Environment stressed that scientists have not yet established whether the virus itself is responsible for the mass mortality. The public has nevertheless been urged not to collect or consume dead or dying fish and not to feed them to pets.
