The Royal Adelaide Show is skipping its bird and poultry competitions this year due to a soaring H5 bird flu outbreak—now over 119 confirmed cases in South Australia, more than three-quarters of the nation’s total. Safety concerns led organizers to cancel the events early, even though they believe the risk is low, to avoid last-minute chaos. A massive die-off at Baudin Rocks isn’t even counted in official numbers, highlighting just how serious the situation has become. While the rest of the show proceeds, expect no chirping or clucking this September—safety first.
