Chicago's Lincoln Park Zoo loses flamingo, seal to bird flu
Fox News
Chicago's Lincoln Park Zoo announced the death of a Harbor Seal and a Chilean Flamingo as a result of the Avian Influenza, a highly pathogenic disease.
"This is sad news for wildlife and for the zoo team. Not only are we facing the first known cases of HPAI in animals in our care, but we’ve lost two amazing animals," said Director of Veterinary Services Lester E. Fisher and Dr. Kathryn Gamble in a statement. "While highly pathogenic avian influenza is a naturally occurring virus in free-ranging waterfowl, more mammal species have been reported to be susceptible to HPAI since 2022."
The zoo was unable to confirm the source of the exposure, but the Centers for Disease Control say that HPAI is spread through saliva, nasal secretion and the feces of infected birds.
