The Kagawa prefectural government said Wednesday that cases of avian influenza were reported at a poultry farm in the prefecture of western Japan, the third outbreak of bird flu at a Japanese farm this year.
A highly pathogenic strain is thought to be the virus. Around 11,000 chickens raised on a farm in the town of Mitoyo will be slaughtered. After getting a warning from the farm on Tuesday that an increasing number of chickens had died,
the Kagawa government started an on-site inspection.
The first outbreak was confirmed on Thursday at a separate farm in Mitoyo. In two years and 10 months, it was the first highly pathogenic bird flu outbreak on a farm in Japan.
