It was found that the elephants ingested contaminated tomatoes containing a toxic substance, leading to the death of many and symptoms such as partial paralysis. The investigation is still ongoing, with the possibility that the poisoning was unintentional and that the mixing of pesticides was the cause of the high cyanide concentration, raising concerns about potential effects on humans as well.
