Federal Appeal Court Grants BC Ostriches Stay of Cull Pending Appeal

Date:

A flock of nearly 400 British Columbia ostriches that gained international fame after they were ordered killed due to an avian flu outbreak have been given a stay of execution—at least for now.

The Federal Court of Appeal has granted the stay that pauses the potential cull at Universal Ostrich Farm in Edgewood, B.C., which was ordered by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency in December and has become embroiled in court processes.
