Description

Fifteen elephants have died in southern Kenya in just one month, suspected victims of cyanide poisoning from contaminated tomatoes likely grown near Amboseli National Park. Authorities confirm toxic levels in the elephants’ bodies, though the culprit remains unknown—past cases point to farmers targeting elephants to safeguard crops. The danger isn’t limited to elephants: livestock grazing nearby could also be at risk. Thankfully, human health isn’t immediately threatened, but investigators are racing to uncover the source and prevent further tragedy.
