City officials in Englewood are the latest to warn residents to steer clear of dead birds as they're seeing an uptick in suspicious bird deaths that have been linked to an outbreak of avian flu
Just last week, Denver officials sent out a similar warning about dead birds found in city parks.
Colorado Parks and Wildlife says previous avian flu strains have caused minimal disease in wild birds. However, this strain has spread to several different types of birds and has been deadly when spread to certain mammals. It is uncommon for the disease to be transmitted to humans. In addition to being vigilant, CPW urges you to contact your local office immediately if you happen to notice three or more dead birds in one area within a few weeks.
