Avian Cholera -- United States
Waterfowl have been reported dead at 7 areas in northeast and east-central Arkansas during the last 4 weeks [Nov 2017], according to the Arkansas Fish and Game Commission.
A total of 4 of these incidents included white-fronted geese (specklebellies) and a small number of dabbling ducks; 3 other incidents have included mostly snow geese. Tests are pending for some birds found dead, but test results from the 1st case indicated those birds died from avian cholera.
