Denmark- HP H5N6, 4 eagles

Bird flu found in four additional eagles
In recent months, highly pathogenic bird flu has been found in five places in Denmark. Backyard and professional poultry producers can do a lot to protect their poultry.
Press Release, Published: March 23, 2018
Modified 23 March 2018

Four eagles have died in recent weeks from the highly pathogenic bird flu type H5N6. This show analyzes from the DTU Veterinary Institute, which has investigated the dead eagles for the Danish Veterinary and Food Administration. The birds have all come in for autopsy following tips from citizens who have encountered the birds in the Danish nature.

The dead eagles were found at Hurup and Hjardem?l in Thy, and at N?stved in Zealand and Maribo in Lolland respectively.

At the beginning of March bird flu was found in a dead eagle at Slagelse, and the authorities in both northern Germany and Sweden have also found bird flu in hobby poultry last week. Bird flu has not been found among Danish domestic poultry.

Remember infection protection
There are no examples that the influenza type has infected humans, but the H5N6 is fatal for both eagles and, for example, chickens and ducklings. Therefore, the Food Agency invites both private and professional poultry breeding to raise awareness of contagion protection. For example, it's a good idea to change shoes before you go to poultry and shield the chicken farm from direct contact with wild birds. Read more about infection protection.

If you find a dead bird in nature, it is far from certain that it is bird flu that has killed it. The bird may also be dead of either age, frost or lack of food.

If you suspect that the bird may be dead of bird flu, for example, because you have found more dead birds in the same place, you can report your findings to the Food Administration on our App, 'Bird Flu Tip'. You can download the App in the App Store and on Google Play.

You can also write to us via the Danish Veterinary and Food Administration's contact form. You can find it on F?devarestyrelsen.dk under 'Contact'
