## Resource

Bird flu hits local seabirds in Australia for the first time — a greater crested tern on the Limestone Coast tested positive for H5, raising alarms but also showing biosecurity’s early detection power. Officials link the case to nearby migratory birds, confirm no widespread outbreak yet, and are ramping up monitoring after a recent coastal wildlife survey found no other signs of illness.
