Birds Avoid the Flu in Latest Report

Wisconsin’s bird flocks have avoided this latest round of the bird flu.

The state’s Department of Agriculture says there hasn’t been a report of the bird flu in either commercial or backyard flocks since January. That was a case in Washburn County that saw over 40-thousand birds destroyed. Before that, there were two outbreaks in commercial flocks in Barron County late last year. DATCP officials also say they have not seen any bird flu cases in people who work with dairy cows in the state, though the department says it is actually monitoring the situation.
