User ID: 59916441 United States 09/03/2015 02:12 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | More than 134,000 animals died in two weeks — nearly one-third of the worldwide population. And the recent scourge wasn't the first time the endangered antelopes have died in large numbers. In fact, saigas are known to be prone to mysterious massive die-offs, reports Henry Nicholls for Nature. He writes: These usually occur when the females come together to calve in the spring. In 1984, such an event in the Ural Mountains resulted in the loss of 100,000 animals — 67% of the local population. There were several smaller-scale die-offs in the 2000s. But this year’s mass-death event among animals living in the Betpak-Dala region of Kazakhstan is much more significant as entire herds are dying.
