State wildlife officials say avian influenza has been detected in wild birds in Scottsdale.

According to the Arizona Game and Fish Department, it’s the first known cases of H5N1 in the state, and the virus was confirmed in three nestling wild cormorants in Eldorado Park in the city.

Personnel responded to a report of dead birds and the virus was confirmed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture...

CHANDLER, AZ (3TV/CBS 5) -- Arizona’s Family has received reports of nearly thirty birds all found dead. It’s happening around one lake community in Chandler. It’s all because of the bird flu, which means keeping your pets away from the birds.

“Since the end of September, we have started getting reports of Canada geese dying,” said Ann Justice-Allen, a wildlife veterinarian for Arizona Game and Fish.

Birds dying at an alarming rate around a lake community near McQueen and Frye roads in Chandler. “Those have been positive for avian influenza in the northern U.S. and those have been found to be positive influenza,” Justice-Allen explained...

Avian flu kills 3 California condors in northern Arizona

Marble Canyon, Ariz. (AP) — Three California condors have died from avian flu in northern Arizona and authorities are trying to determine what killed five others in the flock, the National Park Service announced Friday.

A sick female condor suspected of having lead poisoning was found dead on March 20 and testing showed it had Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI), the park service said.

Two other birds later found dead also tested positive, while test results aren’t yet completed for five others, the park service said.

The birds are part of a population that moves throughout northern Arizona and southern Utah, including Grand Canyon National Park, the park service said.

The Peregrine Fund, which manages the Arizona-Utah flock, also captured five other birds that seemed ill and sent them to a wildlife rescue in Phoenix. One bird died and the other four have been quarantined, officials said.

20 California condors found dead amid Arizona bird flu outbreak
Written by Alysha Lundgren
April 18, 2023

ST. GEORGE — After clawing their way back from the brink of extinction, California condors face a new threat — the bird flu — with 20 found dead since the end of March.

On March 9, a California condor from the Arizona-Utah flock, which The Peregrine Fund manages, began to exhibit signs of illness. She was found deceased below her nest less than two weeks later, according to a news release issued by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

Initially, crews suspected she died of lead poisoning. However, researchers confirmed the H5N1 strain of bird flu was the condor 's cause of death after sending her body to Oregon for a necropsy and sample analysis, the release states.

This result was confirmed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Veterinary Service Laboratory on March 30. And by April 4, three birds in northern Arizona reportedly had succumbed to the illness.

The USFWS began publicly reporting all deceased condors — one of the rarest birds in the world — found on or after March 30 “to be as transparent as possible to the public and stakeholders about the potential extent of this outbreak.” Once necropsies and preliminary tests are complete, confirmed cases will be reported as such.

As of April 17, 20 Arizona-Utah condors have died, with 10 confirmed cases of bird flu. Eight birds were captured to receive supportive care, with four dying shortly after. The remaining four are still in care but appear to be improving...

Bird flu detected in geese at park in Scottsdale
By Ben Bradley
Published: Dec. 20, 2024 at 3:30 PM EST|Updated: 39 minutes ago

SCOTTSDALE, AZ (AZFamily) — Additional cases of bird flu have been confirmed in Arizona, this time in two geese at a park in Scottsdale.

The Arizona Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory recently detected avian influenza in a free-ranging domestic goose and a Canada goose that was found at a Scottsdale park and submitted for testing. Officials confirmed the geese were found at Chaparral Park, near Hayden and Chaparral roads.

The Arizona Game and Fish Department says that while strain identification is pending, it’s likely the same Eurasian strain of the virus detected in other cases around the state and continent.​..
