Because the parasite needs the birds, snails (as mention rotenone will kill some snails) and the fish for its lifecycle. It doesn't reproduce even if the birds are still there without the other 2. It will take some time to ramp back up with all 3 animals in place to the very high levels of infection Pelican suffered from.
