Why are there?

Question

why are there so many dead bugs floating in the ocean and washing up on shore? i have been swimming in the ocean for the past 3 days and there has been nothing but huge masses of dead bugs...they look like ants! does anyone know why there is dead bugs in the ocean?

p.s. its the Atlantic Ocean

if that helps!!

Answer 1

hey, where I live there are dead little fish on the beaches

maybe the bugs were killed by a storm and washed inland

by the waves

Answer 2

there were a lot of storms coming in off the coast lately, so a lot of the animals and bugs that were in the ocean did not live through it-my mom was just down there and she saw it too. i also live right next to the atlantic.
