make that "wild live bird sales"

Interesting in the context of the previous post regarding chicken raising by AnneZ http://www.flutrackers.com/forum/showthread.php?t=18339

The social system under stress by the actions to control bird flu.


Anne's ariticle speaks to growing chickens, this article speaks to controlling wild bird sales and defends the sale of songbirds and love birds. I recall that the Moscow h5n1 outbreak is causing questions about the imports of "exotic birds".

Quote
<blockquote>
Yesterday, Chairman of the Hong Kong Bird Watching Society Zhanghaohui. The recent case of H5N1 avian flu cases are not migratory birds, one of which is used for religious sea birds If Cod songbird, Li Wen abdominal Tremella love birds and other birds, not migratory birds. The other is the habitat of the predators in urban and fresh corruption and birds, such as the crested eagle and magpie. They include food to the sick or dead birds. And the cases were all found in urban areas, such as Mong Kok, and the Happy Valley Sheni埗 other. They have sent a letter to the Secretary for Health, Welfare and Food of Hong Kong Monday Yue and health protection center call for a total ban on the sale of wild birds, because it is the best way to reduce the risk of the outbreak of avian flu.
