Finland ordered the killing of all fur animals in farms where Avian flu has been detected to avoid the spreading of the virus to humans.
The Finnish Food Authority said all the foxes and raccoons will need to be culled from the farms where the bird flu has been detected, according to a statement on Wednesday. The decision, which includes a total of about 115,000 animals, follows an earlier ruling to kill about 135,000 fur animals, which included minks and foxes.
