Toxic algae suspected in cattle deathsFREEMAN, S.D. (AP)--Algae poisoning is suspected in the death of 21 cattle from a herd in Hutchinson County. Official lab reports are pending, but State Veterinarian Sam Holland said it sounds like a case of toxic algae that was concentrated in a water source for the cattle. They died last month while on grazing land leased from the state. Holland says some cases of algae poisoning are reported in the state every year. He says this would be the first of the summer. 8/11/08 Date: 8/6/08
