At least 170 dead
pigs have been found in China's second longest river which is a major source of
water for irrigation for the surrounding regions. But it isn’t yet known where
the pigs came from and what killed them. it is thought that farmers dumped pigs
that have died into rivers to avoid paying for them to disposed of properly.
The problem is that this fact isn't the first time that has happened. This
time, the pigs tested negative for an infectious disease but the test will
carry out further. Because this is leading to concerns about water and food
safety in the city.
This is a big problem
for the 3 million residents who live next to the river because it’s the second
water supply after excessive levels of the chemical benzene was found in the
tap water. For that reason, they were warned not to drink tap water after
levels of the carcinogenic chemical were found to be more than 20 times above
national safety levels. Nowadays is almost impossible to imagine that this fact
could happen.
