The Canadian Food Inspection Agency’s cull of hundreds of Ostriches on an eastern B.C. hobby farm has begun. Protesters and advocacy reporters, many bolstered by U.S. right-wing bloggers and podcasters, reported hearing gun shots early Thursday evening after the Supreme Court of Canada decided against reviewing lower court decisions that relied on experts and science. The cull was first ordered a year ago after several of the large birds tested positive for avian flu. The farm’s owners say the birds are now virus free - health experts note there is no safe way to allow those once infected with avian flu to live.
