Came here after reading the article hoping for an interesting discussion of it, and was disappointed to find this thread instead. Next time do better, or do nothing. Because what you did this time is worse than clickbait.
- cratermoon 3y agoThe article notes "the Pasteurella bacteria generally lives harmlessly" in antelopes, but became more virulent, possibly because of above-average temperatures. There's also a mention that the elephants were likely stressed because of drought conditions. Those facts suggest a link to climate change, and could be a bit of a canary-in-the-coalmine for humans and infectious diseases.
