Japanese carp farm loses 100,000 Nishikigoi in Typhoon Dujuan flood

Heavy rainfall brought by Typhoon Dujuan breached levees at a lake in the Chiba prefecture near Tokyo, resulting in severe flooding that swept away approximately 100,000 Nishikigoi ornamental carp ready for sale.

The massive loss to the local carp farm came to light as regional authorities began assessing widespread damage inflicted on local agricultural and fishery operations by the severe weather system.
