Some 53,000 chickens will be culled in Japan’s Gunma Prefecture due to the detection of a new outbreak of bird flu
The authorities introduced a quarantine within a 3-kilometer (1.86-mile) radius around the farm and banned the transportation of eggs and chickens beyond a 10-kilometer zone. Taking into account the latest outbreaks, the number of chickens culled in Japan this season has already exceeded 10 million, which is an all-time high for Japan now.
