Some 400 endangered amphibians and reptiles have died from dehydration and improper shipping in South Africa, animal inspectors say. More than 1,600 animals were discovered crammed into two crates at the OR Tambo International Airport. The survivors are being treated at a local zoo. The animals, from Madagascar, had been without water and food for at least five days, reports say. They are believed to have been destined for the exotic pet market in the US.
