So I guess bird flu is running rampant in a few states? Neat. Even dead stuff isn't allowed in!

the only infected bird I can find was a wild mallard Nov 17 2015 out of Oregon. so I am not sure what they are basing this on... hidden data maybe or just not published yet. the usda was faster at publishing data than the cfia. I havent checked the canadian list yet... brb.

nothing from the cfia. hopefully its just because these states havent been free of ai for 90 days yet....

the usda map states that all those states have been free of ai for over 90 days... maybe just a precaution?

I wasnt reading the USDAs website right its x amount of days since the last report, which ranges from 188 to 242 days for these states, I dont think they have been cleared yet. so i think this is still just ongoing... But I havent looked at the USDA or the CFIAs websites since Canada was given the all clear, was there restrictions already in place??????
