Highly pathogenic bird flu is spreading among wild birds in Denmark
Poultry must therefore be kept indoors, and it is important to observe precautions for hygiene and contact with poultry in the herds.
Four geese and a gull from the H?jer area were infected with highly pathogenic bird flu, and on Lolland a peregrine falcon with highly pathogenic bird flu was found last week.
Around the country, citizens have found several dead wild birds, which the Danish Veterinary and Food Administration is currently investigating to map the spread of the infection in the country.

9000 poultry are killed after finding bird flu near Viborg
Bird flu in a new poultry herd probably means that limited exports of Danish eggs will continue.
Bird flu has been found in a feathered game herd at L?vel north of Viborg.
Therefore, the farm's herd of about 9000 poultry must be killed.
This is stated by the Danish Veterinary and Food Administration in a press release.
In the autumn, there were two outbreaks of bird flu among agriculture in Denmark.
