Presumptive cases of avian flu in skunks, foxes found in Saskatoon

29 May 2022
Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada
A wildlife pathologist in Saskatoon says his lab is testing several skunks and fox kits showing neurological signs that could be caused by avian flu. The transmission to mammals is not a surprise to Bollinger, who said cases have been showing up in the United States. There are other viral diseases - such as distemper and rabies - that cause similar symptoms in these species.
