''HPAI A/ #H5N1 viruses (lineage 2.3.4.4b) are rapidly invading the #Americas, threatening #wildlife, #poultry, and potentially evolving into next global #pandemic. In November 2022 HPAI arrived in #Peru, triggering massive #pelican and sea lion die-offs. We report #genomic characterization of HPAI/H5N1 in five species of marine mammals and seabirds (dolphins, sea lions, sanderlings, pelicans and cormorants).''

Rooster among hundreds dumped in recent years due to suburban sprawl.
"Suburban areas, dumped cockerels are a growing problem. Livestock has taken up residence in a strip of protected bushland nestled between the highway and the beach, in what's traditionally been brush turkey territory."

by #TomPhilpott in #MotherJones:
"[P]igs can also pick up influenza strains that circulate among birds, whose viruses aren’t well adapted to infecting and spreading among people. Humans don’t have the receptors in our throats and noses that avian flus can easily attach to. Our isolation from avian flus is what makes them dangerous—since our immune systems rarely encounter them, we have little innate ability to fight them off. Enter pigs. They can catch flu strains from birds (often carrying them without symptoms), mash them up with genetic material from human-adapted flus, and create novel varieties capable of flummoxing human immunity and generating pandemics. That’s why virologists call hogs 'mixing vessels' for novel influenza strains."
