Dzud: a slow natural disaster kills livestock --and livelihoods-- in Mongolia

Mongolia is currently experiencing weather that is even unheard of for that extreme part of the world. More than 3.7 million animals have frozen to death. So far, 1.5 million goats, 950 thousand sheep, 170 thousand cows, 90 thousand horses and 1500 camels have frozen to death. Some estimate that Mongolia could loose 20 million animals before the winter is over. No mention is made until now of how many people have died.
