    據(jù)愛(ài)達(dá)荷州漁獵局（Idaho Department of Fish and Game）發(fā)言人洛辛斯基（Gregg Losinski）說(shuō)，生物學(xué)家正在等待該州野生動(dòng)物實(shí)驗(yàn)室的化驗(yàn)結(jié)果，以證實(shí)這些雪雁是否死于高度傳染性疾病。他稱，目前人類感染此病的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)很小，更多直接的威脅是針對(duì)周邊的野生動(dòng)物。

    About 2,000 snow geese migrating from Mexico to their Alaskan nesting grounds were found dead in Idaho, the state's Department of Fish and Game announced Monday. Although testing is still in progress, officials believe that the deaths are consistent with avian cholera.

    The suddenness in which the birds died is part of the reason that experts suspect avian cholera, which kills acute sufferers in as little as six hours. “Basically, they just fell out of the sky,” Fish and Game spokesman Gregg Losinski told Reuters.
