OSLO, NorwayTens of thousands of dead herring have carpeted a stretch of coast in northern Norway -- and then disappeared again.
The fish appeared on New Year's Eve, leading to speculation that predators might have driven a huge school ashore or the fish could have been washed onto the beach by a powerful storm that hit Norway on Christmas Day.
