    This is similar to what occurred back in 1930’s with cows dying up in the Northern part of the U.S. and Canada. When one Dr. examined the dead cows he found they had excessive bleeding thru out their bodies. It was determined that rotten sweet clover was killing off the cows. As a result of this, the first heart drug was made called “Warfarin” by Dr. Link. I would venture a guess that this is similar to what is happening to the antelope.

    Sour gas. High concentrations of hydrogen sulfide. Kazakhstan has a lot of natural gas with this contaminant. A lot of pollution if they flare it off (burn it). Too expensive to remove the sulfur. So they separate as much of the hydrogen sulfide and then compress the remaining concentrated contaminated natural gas. This gas is then compressed to about 10,000 psi or more and pumped to abandoned deep gas wells far out on the steppe. There it is injected far underground. Who knows where this sour gas will exit the ground? Source: I worked on the site where the gas was compressed. Side note: Sour gas containing any water at high pressures will erode steel in minutes causing a leak. Location was Aksai, KZ.

    Having said this you should not go wandering the steppe without safety equipment or you may be sleeping with the antelope. This sour gas could be one explanation for the antelope die off.

    Wow. Thats a lot of dead antelope. Its hard to imagine a mass die off of that scale occuring naturally in conditions resulting from recent weather fluctuations. Bacteria can surely spread fast among herds, but there has to be something else going on here. Based on the locations these animals habitats, they don’t seem to live near large populations of people, so the mystery deepens. This doesn’t happen in healthy ecosystems, but the earth is always in various speeds of change.

    A natural culling event would not be so swift or dramatic. Populations go through boom and bust cycles, sure, but they usually are predictable and observable over long time scales (50-60 years). also, there is no obvious cause of the die offs like lack of food or outbreak of disease (unless the disease is a new one where the symptoms are very hard to detect). source: Ecology PhD student.
