How skuas, frigatebirds, and gulls are helping spread avian influenza
The HinduIt’s not easy finding food at sea. The new strain of avian flu is killing birds by their millions – and we found kleptoparasitism could spread the virus very easily. “HPAI” stands for Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza, meaning the virus can more readily cause severe disease and death. We have already seen signs of this in skua populations in the northern and southern hemispheres, with brown and great skuas being some of the first detected H5N1 infections at new locations. Skuas more often steal food from other seabirds when away from their breeding sites – including when they’re migrating back to these areas.
