Local rescuers and park staff reported a cluster of sick and dead waterfowl over the past two weeks, prompting sampling and further laboratory analysis<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"903\" data-end=\"1236\">\u201cIn the past two weeks we have received two Canada goose carcasses from Cameron Park Lake, and the preliminary results show avian influenza,\u201d CDFW wildlife staffer Peter Tira said in a news update. Officials said additional birds found ill in the area were euthanized to prevent undue suffering.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1238\" data-end=\"1780\"><strong>What happened and who\u2019s involved<\/strong><br data-start=\"1270\" data-end=\"1273\" \/>Wildlife rescuers reported finding several sick geese exhibiting neurological signs \u2014 lethargy, unsteady gait and head-twisting \u2014 and at least five dead geese and nine birds that were euthanized after falling ill, according to local reports. The Cameron Park Community Services District and volunteer rescuers alerted state wildlife authorities after the surge in sick waterfowl. Laboratory confirmation arrived after samples were forwarded to a state lab for analysis.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1782\" data-end=\"2277\"><strong>Why migration matters<\/strong><br data-start=\"1803\" data-end=\"1806\" \/>Avian influenza frequently moves with migratory waterfowl such as ducks and geese, which can act as natural reservoirs for several strains of influenza A. Experts say outbreaks often spike in the fall and winter as birds move southward and congregate at lakes, ponds and other stopover sites. Because Canada geese congregate in large flocks and use shared waterbodies, the virus can spread rapidly within local wild-bird populations<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2279\" data-end=\"2921\"><strong>Local risk and public guidance<\/strong><br data-start=\"2309\" data-end=\"2312\" \/>So far, officials say the event appears localized to Cameron Park and El Dorado County; neighboring counties had not reported related detections as of Wednesday. Authorities emphasized that the public health risk to people remains low, but they warned of real consequences for other wild birds and domestic poultry if the virus spreads. The California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA) and federal partners have repeatedly stressed that HPAI (highly pathogenic avian influenza) can devastate backyard and commercial flocks with heavy losses if biosecurity lapses.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2923\" data-end=\"3296\">Residents were advised not to handle sick or dead birds and to keep pets away from wild birds and water where birds congregate. People who find sick or dead birds should report them to local authorities rather than attempting to dispose of them. Park signage warning visitors to avoid wildlife has been posted around Cameron Park Lake.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3298\" data-end=\"3713\"><strong>Reaction from the community<\/strong><br data-start=\"3325\" data-end=\"3328\" \/>Daily walker Launi Varbell, who frequents the lake, said she\u2019s noticed larger flocks this season and expressed concern.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p data-start=\"3298\" data-end=\"3713\">\u201cI\u2019ve been videoing them because there\u2019s big clusters of them. They\u2019re gorgeous. I love them,\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p data-start=\"3298\" data-end=\"3713\">Varbell said, adding that she noticed birds behaving strangely before officials confirmed tests.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p data-start=\"3298\" data-end=\"3713\">\u201cIt makes me sad to see them sick.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p data-start=\"3715\" data-end=\"4248\"><strong>What poultry owners should do now<\/strong><br data-start=\"3748\" data-end=\"3751\" \/>County and state agricultural officials urge backyard flock and commercial poultry owners to immediately review and strengthen biosecurity: keep birds housed or separated from wild birds, secure feed and water sources to prevent contamination, disinfect footwear and equipment, and report any unexplained poultry deaths to CDFA or local animal health officials. Rapid reporting helps animal health teams trace and limit potential spillover to domestic flocks.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4250\" data-end=\"4665\"><strong>Outlook and next steps<\/strong><br data-start=\"4272\" data-end=\"4275\" \/>CDFW and local agencies said they will continue surveillance at Cameron Park Lake and surrounding areas and will provide updates as more test results come back. Given the seasonal migration pattern, wildlife and agricultural officials say additional detections among wild birds are possible and that vigilance \u2014 not alarm \u2014 is the appropriate response.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4667\" data-end=\"4890\">\u2014<br data-start=\"4668\" data-end=\"4671\" \/><strong data-start=\"4671\" data-end=\"4683\">Sources:<\/strong> California Department of Fish and Wildlife; Cameron Park Community Services District; KCRA; CBS Sacramento; Folsom Times; California Department of Food and Agriculture.<\/p>\n<hr data-start=\"4892\" data-end=\"4895\" \/>\n<p data-start=\"6287\" data-end=\"6509\">\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"z-0 flex min-h-[46px] justify-start\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"mt-3 w-full empty:hidden\">\n<div class=\"text-center\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<div class=\"pointer-events-none h-px w-px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-edge=\"true\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Laboratory tests confirmed avian flu in Canada geese at Cameron Park Lake.
