Australia reports first mammal bird flu case
Australia has confirmed its first case of H5N1 avian influenza in an already infected animal, with authorities discovering a deceased seal infected with the virus approximately 310 kilometers south of Adelaide. The Minister of Agriculture stated that the seal's death is not linked to the presence of other sick marine animals, but rather reflects the spread of the disease in the natural environment. This comes particularly after a mass die-off of seabirds was recorded following the virus's detection in migratory birds and its transmission to local species. It is worth noting that the outbreak has caused significant losses among seabirds and continues to pose a threat to the country's marine environment.
