				I recently move some population from a 4,6 planet and unloaded them onto a 5,5 planet, 5 population units died during the unloading process.
Is this attrition or is there some other calamity not mentioned like stampedes.

				It is attrition, how many POPs did you drop?

				I only move 10 POP at a time.  I think when you do that it limits losses.  Going from 4,6 to 5,5 should not be that great of a loss.  Maybe Thom can weigh in on this...

				Thank you, I was just under the impression that I either would not suffer attrition in this case or the losses would be minimal 
For example 1 or 2 percent send.

				They should have been.  I think the problem was when you sent 25.  I have sent 10 at a time and have lost none.
