Dead sub-Antarctic seabirds have been found washed up along the South Australian coastline, including at Fowlers Bay. Local reports say the birds are being collected and tested for avian influenza, specifically the H5 strain. The testing is intended to determine whether the deaths are linked to H5 avian virus or another cause. Authorities are assessing the incident as part of broader surveillance for disease outbreaks among seabirds. While details about the number of birds, species affected, and the timing or extent of the wash-up are not provided in the available reports, both outlets describe the same core response: the seabirds are being tested for H5 avian virus following their discovery. The articles present the finding as an alert that supports ongoing monitoring of wildlife health along South Australia’s coast.
