South Australia is launching a bold new vaccination drive to shield its most vulnerable native birds from bird flu, vaccinating over 100 birds across 30 species—including critically endangered icons like the orange-bellied parrot and regent honeyeater. With no poultry cases yet but proactive measures in place, this state-led initiative targets captive birds at highest risk, combining national approvals with on-the-ground expertise at Cleland Wildlife Park. It’s part of a broader strategy that includes surveillance and public alerts—encouraging citizens to report sick or dead birds without touching them. This isn’t just about prevention—it’s a powerful statement of commitment to preserving Australia’s unique avian heritage.
