Midwest Flooding and impact on Wildlife

[ChrisOutdoors]

Short video showing flood waters in the midwest. Most of what you see is normally dry ground. Oak trees present in the video (most of them) are a good indicator of the flooded areas. The later half of the video is the wildlife, most of them stuck on an old garbage dump turned into a grassy hill. The fish and turtles are all on a side of the levee normally dry (other side is a man made canal), last time a flood like this was seen was 1993.

Interesting the deer were not scared. None raised their tails and show the white fur for a sign of danger. If you had moved fast probably would not have been the case though. That was neat to observe them without disturbing them.
