Revelation 6:7,8 NCV When the Lamb opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, "Come!"8 I looked, and there before me was a pale horse. Its rider was named death, and Hades was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill people by war, by starvation, by disease, and by the wild animals of the earth.
Wildlife officials in Utah have solved a mystery revolving around a cluster of dead bald eagles.
The Utah Division of Wildlife Resources says lab tests confirmed that 27 bald eagles found in a small area all died from West Nile Virus.
The statement from the DWR guesses that the birds ate smaller birds who had been migrating through the area which were carriers of the virus. The cluster of birds infected include five other eagles who are being treated at a wildlife rehabilitation center.
The agency says the migration of the feeder birds is ending decreasing the likelihood of finding more dead birds. However, members of the public are encouraged to avoid contact with any dead or sick bird they may find.
