Mass Cattle Deaths May Be Caused By Random Grass Mutation

A mysterious mass death of a herd of cattle has prompted a federal investigation in Central Texas.

Preliminary test results are blaming the deaths on the grass the cows were eating when they got sick. The grass is a genetically modified form of Bermuda known as Tifton 85 which has been growing here for 15 years

The cows dropped dead several weeks ago on a ranch in Elgin, just east of Austin.
