A former Lurker – at 09:37

MaMa…Would it be possible to get the link on the Summery above to the Entire news page for the previous day not just the summery? I (and I’m sure others)like to catch up on the stories that I missed late the previous day. Thanks for putting back the Lookout Posts.

a former lurker, absolutely! Here it is… News Reports for November 20. This is an amalgamation of all of the reports posted on both the old and the new forum. Sorry for the confusion, things have been kind of hectic for me the past few days and I’m still trying to figure out the best way to do things. It will be alot simpler on Friday when the new forum is done being set up and we’re all ‘on the same page’ so to speak…..sorry, I couldn’t resist the pun:-)

sad day for Reykjavík Farm Animal Zoo

“Almost all poultry was killed in Reykjavík Farm Animal Zoo yesterday on the orders of the Agricultural Authority of Iceland out of fear for bird flu. Halldór Runólfsson, head vet of the Agricultural Authority, told RÚV that these measures had been necessary because some of the Zoo’s birds had been diagnosed with the H5N2 and H5N9 branches of bird flu.

Close to 60 birds of seven different species were killed yesterday: Geese, ducks, pheasants, Icelandic hens, several kinds of doves and a golden plover. The lives of three birds were spared, of two hawks and the wild eagle Sigurörn, who has been in the Zoo’s care since last summer. He will be released soon.

The cages where the infected birds were kept are being sterilized and can be used again after three months.
