Bird flu detected in Southeast Alaska black bear cub

Bartlett Cove

It is believed that the cub, which was located in Bartlett Cove in Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve west of Juneau, is the second bear diagnosed with the highly pathogenic bird flu. The virus was first detected in an adult female black bear in Canada in June. Alaska state officials have tested scavenging animals. So far, it’s only been found in two other animals, both red foxes in Dutch Harbor and the western Alaska community of Unalakleet.
