Rare elephants poisoned by poachers in Indonesia

Two rare Sumatran elephants believed to have been poisoned with cyanide-laced pineapples were found dead in the jungles of northwestern Indonesia with their tusks removed.

The giant males aged 16 and 23 were discovered near Pekanbaru, Sumatra, about 560 miles from the capital, Jakarta, said a spokesman for the Conservation and Natural Resources Agency.
