The death of more than 40 cattle on a south Georgia farm is being investigated by the state’s Department of Agriculture. A department spokesperson confirms a probe is underway, but with no further details. The Lanier County sheriff’s office received a call Sunday that cows were falling dead on a family farm on the Clinch county side of the border with Lanier county. Authorities estimate 44 cows died suddenly. The farm has been placed under quarantine--the cattle were buried following state specifications.
