The Atlantic Wildlife Institute confirms its first bird flu case of 2025 in New Brunswick, urging caution around sick birds as the virus spreads across Canada and the U.S.
New Brunswick reported its first bird flu case of 2025, confirmed in a bird found around the same time as a large die-off of Canada Geese in P.E.I.. The Atlantic Wildlife Institute called it "heartbreaking and worrisome," warning the public to be cautious around sick or dead birds and to protect pet birds. Bird flu has been spreading in Canada since 2021 and has the potential to infect mammals.
