PRO/AH/EDR> Undiagnosed deaths, ovine – Iceland: RFI

Undiagnosed — Worldwide/Unknown
Hundreds of sheep in Iceland have died off, and no one seems to know the exact cause. Research is currently underway to find the culprit.
RUV reports that the deaths have hit especially hard in Borgarfjordur in west Iceland, Eyjafjordur in the north, and across east Iceland. The wide area over which the deaths are occurring — as well as the alarming rate at which sheep are dying off — has many farmers worried. In some cases, half of entire flocks have been lost.
