Bird Flu Detected in South African Dolphin

A dolphin has died from the H5 bird flu virus in South Africa, marking a concerning development in the spread of the disease among marine mammals.

Researchers have been withdrawn from sub-Antarctic islands due to 'psychosocial risks' associated with the ongoing wildlife health crisis.

Australia has also confirmed its first H5N1 case in a local mammal, prompting authorities to initiate vaccination efforts for wild penguin populations.
