Cleland Wildlife Park is launching a bold new vaccination drive for up to 100 native birds across 30 species, targeting South Australia’s most vulnerable avian stars like the orange-bellied parrot and regent honeyeater to shield them from deadly H5 bird flu. With two carefully spaced shots and round-the-clock health checks, this proactive effort adds a critical layer of defense—though officials stress it’s not a cure-all. Species were chosen based on conservation urgency and flu risk, all under strict biosecurity protocols. While no H5 cases have been found in local poultry or humans yet, experts urge the public to report any sick or dead birds—and stay away—to help keep our feathered friends safe.
