Bird flu found in Bernalillo County

​February 28, 2025

BERNALILLO COUNTY, N.M. (KRQE) – The New Mexico Department of Agriculture (NMDA) has detected highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI), commonly known as “bird flu,” in Bernalillo County.

The department made the announcement Friday saying the flu was found in a non-commercial backyard poultry flock. Over 40 birds from a nearly 50-bird flock—including chickens, ducks and geese—have died. “ ‘Bird flu symptoms’: Online searches spike after first severe case in US
“Given the extent of avian influenza detections throughout the country, finding it in our state is not unexpected, particularly during this time of year with the onset of bird migrations,” New Mexico State Veterinarian. Dr. Samantha Holeck stated in a news release. “The New Mexico Livestock Board is working closely with the agriculture and health departments to monitor the situation and address issues as they arise.”


State officials said they have quarantined the affected premises. Samples are being sent to the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s National Veterinary Services Laboratories for confirmation.

The flu has been detected in domestic cats and wild animals in several states. In New Mexico, there has been one report of HPAI in a domestic cat and a wild skunk in Curry County this year.

New Mexico officials watch for avian flu during bird migration season

​OCTOBER 17, 2025

As hundreds of millions of birds flock south during seasonal autumn migration, so too does a particularly virulent strain of bird flu. New Mexico state officials said they’re keeping an eye on wild bird and mammal deaths as the season progresses, but noted that some tracking efforts have been hampered by the ongoing federal shutdown.​

Many routine surveillance and response activities are currently limited. Active surveillance on healthy migrating waterfowl that is normally coordinated through federal partners has been paused,” Crockett said.​
