Two sick birds were brought to a wildlife rescue on June 14th, and authorities acted swiftly, testing them. This follows earlier cases near Esperance, Western Australia. While no human or native wildlife infections have been confirmed yet, officials are urgently monitoring the situation—including testing a dead porpoise found nearby—and are still awaiting results. Another potential case in WA is under investigation. The virus remains a serious threat, but for now, the focus is on containment and understanding its spread.
