As you may have heard there has been a reemergence of Newcastle Disease affecting poultry in Southern California.
The CDFA and University of CA Cooperative Extension of Orange County are inviting a wide range of community partners such as local animal control, waste disposal and other organizations that may be uniquely positioned to help detect and report early outbreaks.
