There have been 137 mortalities consisting of 95 cattle, three horses and 39 bison. |
In the Adirondack mountains of New York, an attempt to reintroduce lynxes failed, with 18 of 37 mortalities attributed to road kills. |
The eastern North Pacific stock of gray whales has been increasing in recent years despite known harvests and other human caused mortalities. |
Farm workers must wash or use a hand sanitizer after collecting mortalities. |
If mortalities are not disposed of or stored properly, wild animals, dogs, or birds could exhume them and help spread diseases. |
Those disease control measures should last until inspections have shown that the increased mortalities have ceased. |
