H5 Bird Flu Detected in Migratory Seabird | Adelaide News
Description
A suspect case of deadly H5 bird flu has been detected in a migratory seabird at Hardwicke Bay in South Australia, marking the state’s second case and Australia’s seventh nationwide. While no poultry or local bird populations are affected yet, officials stress ongoing surveillance and public vigilance—report sick or dead birds immediately but avoid contact. The Biodiversity Council is urging the federal government to invest $200 million over two years to protect vulnerable wildlife before the virus escalates, reminding us that environmental health is everyone’s responsibility.
