Gold Rush
The Food chain
A fish dies

Even if it takes time the animals on the top of the food chain are affected
THAT INCLUDES US!!!
Loss of gold
All the gold is taken but people continue digging
The environment is effected
People are dis-heartened as it was and still is now very valuable
Destroying the Earth and land. Also taking away the good soil and nutrients.
People who found a gold nugget would have a fortune
Gold costs more than what it cost back then.
Camels carry the gold back to the home town
Camels also carried water to where they were digging for gold.
