Bird flu could drive the slender-billed curlew to extinction -- there are very few specimens left and the virus could just be enough to push it over the edge.
That's where we'd expect it to come up next if the birds can carry it. It's just a matter of time, really.
There is more and more evidence building up that wild migratory birds do play some role in spreading the virus, but personally I believe - and others agree - that it?s not a major role. If we would assume based on this evidence that wild birds would be a major carrier of the disease, we would expect a more dramatic outbreak of the disease all over the world.
