'Catastrophic' elephant deaths mystery: Hundreds have dropped dead in Botswana, and no one knows why


Hundreds of elephants have mysteriously dropped dead in Botswana, leaving wildlife experts and government officials searching for answers. Heartbreaking aerial photos show the dead elephants dotted around the Botswanan landscape. Government officials in Botswana say there is no evidence that poaching is involved in the mysterious elephant deaths. Phys.org reports that last year, more than 100 elephants in Botswana died in a suspected outbreak of natural Anthrax.
