The Sigean African Reservation closed for at least 21 days. The park has not welcomed visitors since Saturday evening following a prefectural decree. A case of bird flu it was just discovered on one of the site’s birds.
Avoid any spread
The alert was launched early last week. A pelican was found dead at the level of a pond. The presence of the virus was immediately suspected. But it was necessary to wait for the return of the analyzes to confirm the avian flu case.
As a precaution, the site will be closed for at least 21 days. “The idea is to avoid, for example, that visitors can bring the virus back through the soles of their shoes, explains Gabriel de Jesus, the site’s communications director. For our part, we will create a whole cleaning system. We will have to disinfect our soles with foot baths and disinfect the wheels of our vehicles by means of rotoluves “.
It is not the first time that the Sigean African Reservation is confronted with a case of avian flu. In December 2021 the site had to close after the death of six pelicans. The reserve also organizes a vaccination of its birds. The campaign was underway and was due to end at the end of November.
