Rural B.C. officials receive ‘gratitude’ over landfill resolution before ostrich cull
May 16, 2025
A member of a British Columbia regional district says a decision not to allow the Canadian Food Inspection Agency to dispose of ostrich carcasses in its landfills pending further testing of the birds has been met with “gratitude.” The Regional District of Central Kootenay board resolved “to withhold acceptance, at any landfill” of ostrich carcasses from a farm in Edgewood, B.C., where as many as 400 ostriches are expected to be culled over exposure to the avian flu.
