Ostriches at B.C. farm have been culled, food-safety agency says

November 7, 2025

Canada’s food-safety agency says professional marksmen have killed the hundreds of ostriches at a B.C. farm overnight after the failure of farmers to secure a last-minute legal reprieve from the bird-flu cull.

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency confirmed in a Friday statement the completion of the extermination of the flock, which had been delayed by various legal challenges since the outbreak was detected last December.
