CFIA says B.C. ostrich cull will go ahead, despite intervention from RFK Jr.
May 26, 2025
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency says it will go ahead with a cull of ostriches from a farm in Edgewood, B.C., despite a request from United States Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. that they be spared. Kennedy had posted a letter on social media on Friday addressed to CFIA President Paul MacKinnon, saying there is “significant value” studying the ostriches’ immune response to avian flu and asking the agency to partner in a study of the birds.
