400 Sheep Commit Suicide in France

NICE, France (AP) -- More than 400 sheep leapt to their deaths this weekend in mountainous southeastern France -- likely a panicked attempt to escape from a pack of wolves, police said.

The sheep have lain in a ravine near the Mercantour national park since Saturday, and police were burning them on Tuesday. Officials discovered wolf bite marks on some of the carcasses.

Police said there was no risk of contamination to the water supply.

The local agriculture department started a procedure to reimburse the owner, who lost 406 animals -- nearly his entire herd.
