Deadliest Bird Flu Outbreak in U.S. History Is Killing Bears, Mountain Lions, and Marine Mammals
If we've learned anything about the H5N1 virus lately, it's that it doesn't discriminate against mammals

On Thursday, Feb. 9, Colorado Parks and Wildlife published a press release detailing three recently-confirmed cases of highly-pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI or “avian flu”) in mammals; one black bear, one skunk, and one mountain lion. These cases join a growing list of instances in which the latest bird flu outbreak has infected wildlife other than birds. The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) is maintaining this list in a database on their website. So far, avian flu has infected at least 121 wild mammals in 21 states (that we know of).

Here are the current numbers on the 16 non-bird species that have contracted avian flu since March 2022:

American black bear (2)
Amur leopard (1)
Amur tiger (1)
Bobcat (4)
Bottlenose dolphin (1)
Coyote (1)
Fisher (1)
Grey seal (1)
Grizzly bear (3)
Harbor seal (16)
Kodiak bear (1)
Mountain lion (2)
Raccoon (8)
Red fox (57)
Skunk (8)
Striped skunk (13)
Virginia opossum (3)
