![]() ![]() There was speculation on social media that it could have been caused by 5G technology.īut Dr Richard Broughton, an ecologist with the UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology, said that although he could not see a raptor in the footage, he was 99% sure it was caused by a predatory bird. Another suggestion was that the birds were electrocuted while resting on power lines. The birds tend to breed farther north, in the US and Canada, and migrate south for winter in Mexico.Īccording to the local paper El Heraldo de Chihuahua, which first reported the story, a veterinarian suggested blame for the incident could lie with high levels of pollution, driven by the use of wood-burning heaters, agrochemicals, and cold weather in the area. The incident happened on the morning on 7 February, according to local reports.
