Turkey's Culled At Wicklow Farm In Battle Against New Bird Flu Strain

Up to now, it had only been found in wild birds -- and this free-range flock near Knockananna is the first outbreak on a farm.
Authorities across Northern Europe have ordered mass culls of tens of thousands of birds since the autumn.
