聯合國食物及農業組織認為：野鳥助長了禽流感在歐亞地區傳播，但是同時發出警 告，撲殺野鳥於事無補，反而可能會製造出更多帶病毒的個體。
Wild birds 'partly' to blame for bird flu spread
Debora MacKenzie
Wild birds have helped transmit the deadly H5N1 bird flu across Eurasia, a meeting of 300 scientists at the UN Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) concluded on Wednesday. But killing them to prevent further spread of the disease is not the answer, they warn.
In fact, Marc Choisy and Pejman Rohani at the University of Georgia at Athens in the US have shown that killing wild animals with a disease like flu could actually lead to more infected animals, not fewer.
