Extreme heat in Kansas, USA, 2,000 cattle die
米カンザス州南西部で、猛暑のために死んだ畜牛が少なくとも２０００頭に上っていります
At least 2000 cattle have died due to the heat wave in southwestern Kansas, USA.
State officials told CNN that the cows couldn’t keep up with the heat because of the high temperatures and humidity and almost no wind.
The number of dead cattle was revealed by a contact from a facility that asked the state for assistance in disposing of carcasses.
In southwestern Kansas, the temperature soared from the 10th to the 11th, and the unusual heat and humidity continued almost all night.
There was almost no wind, and the minimum temperature at night only dropped to around 21 degrees Celsius.
This caused heat stroke in the cattle in the area, said Scarlet Huggins of the Kansas Livestock Association.
The cows couldn’t tolerate the sudden fluctuations, Huggins explained. We will take all measures such as changing the amount and introducing sprinklers. ”
