A symposium on "Avian Influenza: Impacts on Wild Birds, Domestic Birds and Humans" will be held here April 15 at the Davis Senior Center, in California.
The symposium will explore the roles that wild birds and other wildlife could play in a widespread pandemic resulting from an avian influenza outbreak.
Topics will include an ecology of bird populations as well as expectations for AI in the Pacific Flyways and west coast domestic bird populations; wetland management as a strategy to fight AI; legislative actions; and federal, state, local and private sector planning.
The symposium has been organized by the Yolo Audubon Society.
