Snowstorm in Colorado leads to over 100 pronghorn deaths as they struggle to avoid roads.

A snowstorm in eastern Colorado has led to over 100 pronghorn antelope deaths as the animals seek refuge on roads, where they struggle to avoid oncoming traffic due to icy conditions. Colorado Parks and Wildlife urges drivers to slow down, especially at night, and asks landowners to plow fields to offer safer shelter for the pronghorns until the snow melts. Officials are monitoring herds and removing carcasses to protect them.
