Bird Flu Detected In Crook County

PRINEVILLE, OR -- Crook County has its first case of bird flu. The Oregon Department of Agriculture confirmed Friday the virus was found in a backyard flock of about 70 birds, consisting of different species of poultry and domestic waterfowl.

All the birds were euthanized to prevent the spread and the State Vet placed the farm under quarantine. This is the second case of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza in Oregon, so far this season.
