## Resource

Bird flu just hit Australia’s wild seabirds — a greater crested tern was found dead at Robe Marina and tested positive for H5, marking the first confirmed case in a native Australian bird. It’s not a surprise given bird migration, but it’s a red flag. Two giant petrels also tested positive, bringing the total to five wild seabird cases in South Australia — all isolated so far. Authorities stress: no poultry farms affected, no mass bird die-offs, but public vigilance is key. Report any sick or dead birds to the Emergency Animal Disease Hotline. Aerial surveys haven’t found widespread spread yet, and community briefings are coming to keep everyone informed. Don’t touch birds — just report them.
