Dangerous Fish! - All Stream Caught Fish is Dangerous to Pregnant Women and Children

A new study released by the U.S. Geological Survey found that every fish sampled from 300 streams nationwide contained toxic traces of mercury. The highest mercury levels were found in remote blackwater streams along the coast of the Carolinas, Georgia, Florida and Louisiana. Mercury was also high in fish near gold mining areas, in areas across the West, and in the North Fork of the Edisto River in South Carolina. No Fish can escape mercury pollution according to the study.
