Qld: Authorities dispute claims of 50 lungfish deaths

By Gabrielle Dunlevy and Steve Gray

BRISBANE, June 25 AAP - The deaths of vulnerable lungfish at a southeast Queensland
dam has been branded a national outrage by lobby groups, but authorities dispute their
claims.

Water was released from North Pine Dam from Monday morning to Tuesday night as a safety
measure, as heavy rain threatened to overfill the dam.

Conservationists say 50 rare lungfish were battered to death, some of them up to 1.5
metres long, indicating they could be 100 years old.
