The 2021 North-East England shellfish die-off was a series of occasions where a mass of shellfish were found on beaches on the coasts of the North-East and Yorkshire in northern England, either dead, or in stages of dying. These events first occurred in October 2021, with re-occurrences in February, and September 2022, with concerns being raised at the amount of crabs, lobsters and other marine animals found dead. An investigation by DEFRA stated that a large algal bloom had killed off the marine life, however, those working in the fishing industry, (including the North East Fishing Collective) and independent scientists, have claimed the wave of deaths has been caused by pyridine poisoning, an effect of dredging in the River Tees.
