Une centaine d’éléphants sont morts ces deux derniers mois dans le parc national de Chobe (nord), le plus grand du Botswana. Ils ont été victimes des effets de la sécheresse qui sévit dans toute l’Afrique australe, ont annoncé, hier, les autorités.

Ces pachydermes sont pour une partie morts de faim, pour l’autre de la maladie du charbon (anthrax) en ingérant de la terre, a précisé le ministère de l’Environnement.
