2000 Geese Drop Dead From Sky In Idaho

2,000 geese were found daed in Idaho, the Department of Fish and Game announced on Monday, with a spokesperson saying “Basically, they just fell out of the sky”.
Washingtonpost.com reports:
The suddenness in which the birds died is part of the reason that experts suspect avian cholera, which kills acute sufferers in as little as six hours. “Basically, they just fell out of the sky,” Fish and Game spokesman Gregg Losinski told Reuters.
To prevent any other wildlife from picking up the disease, officials have collected and burned the carcasses, all found in the Mud Lake and Market Lake Wildlife Management Areas in the southeast region of the state.
“The important thing is to quickly collect as many of the carcasses as possible, to prevent other birds from feeding on the infected birds,” Upper Snake Regional Supervisor Steve Schmidt said in a statement. The carcasses were collected over the weekend.
While local wildlife populations are potentially at risk from avian cholera, humans are at a low risk of picking up an infection from the bacteria that causes the disease, officials said. It’s not clear where the geese may have contracted the illness, but Schmidt noted that avian cholera has “occurred sporadically in the region over the past few decades.”
Observers are already concerned about one group of scavenging birds spotted near the carcasses: about 20 bald eagles, a bird species that scavenges for food. But as Fish and Wildlife notes, avian cholera’s incubation period means that officials aren’t certain they’ll be able to locate the eagles “if and when the avian cholera affects them.”
Geese, coots, gulls and crows are the birds most commonly infected with avian cholera, the U.S. Geological Survey’s National Wildlife Health Center says. It’s spread a few different ways: from bird-bird contact, from contact with “secretions or feces” from an infected animal, or from ingesting bacteria-containing water and soil.
