3rd Annual Antelope Die-Off in Kazakhstan—Was a Spacecraft to Blame?
3rd Annual Antelope Die-Off in Kazakhstan—Was a Spacecraft to Blame? | Extinction Countdown, Scientific American Blog Network: "This is getting a bit weird. In May 2010 at least 12,000 critically endangered saiga antelopes (Saiga tatarica) were found dead in Kazakhstan. Exactly one year later a second mass die-off occurred, killing 450 of the rare animals. Now, once again almost exactly a year later, yet another round of deaths has struck Kazakhstan’s saiga population. Nearly 1,000 dead antelopes have been found over the past two weeks."
