As a visitor, you can help protect the birds kept at CCEEC from bird flu. Here's what you should know!
Bird flu, also known as Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) is a virus that harms wild and domestic birds.
The risk to people is low, but the disease can kill hawks, eagles, and other birds.
On your next visit, please:
-
Stay outdoors and visit the birds along the boardwalk first
-
Come inside to see our building and displays after that
-
Do not return to the boardwalk after your time inside
If you have chickens, ducks, turkeys or other birds at home, OR if you're visiting to bring us a sick bird for rehabilitation, we ask you not to visit on the boardwalk at all.
Thank you for caring about the birds!
