USDA has discovered High Path Avian Flu in alpacas in Idaho. This is the first time it has been found in the animals.
The infected animals were tested on a farm where poultry had tested positive for the virus and were culled in May. There are more than 264,000 alpacas registered in the U.S., according to the Alpaca Owners Association.
