Kentucky River Noah talks to Pete Pfeiffer, Director of the Fisheries Division in the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources, about a fish kill in the Kentucky River caused by last week's fire at the Wild Turkey Bourbon warehouse. Bourbon ran off into the river, creating an alcohol-laced plume 4 to 5 miles long. Fish have been running ahead of the plume and stacking up behind dams, where they are dying.
