Australia races to shield little penguins from H5N1 bird flu #worldnow

A race against bird flu is underway on Australia's Phillip Island, where wildlife workers are catching and vaccinating more than 5,000 little penguins against highly contagious H5N1 avian influenza. These penguins are a major tourist attraction, drawing more than 700,000 visitors each year for the famous "penguin parade" at sunset. After three mass bird deaths were recently identified in South Australia, which are "presumed" to have died from H5N1 bird flu, wildlife experts are stepping up efforts to protect the vulnerable population. #worldnow #littlepenguins #penguins #h5n1 #birdflu #Australia #wildlife #conservation 📺 Subscribe to our YouTube channel and stay updated with our latest analysis and interviews:👇 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgrNz-aDmcr2uuto8_DL2jg 👈 Download our APP on Apple Store (iOS): https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/cctvnews-app/id922456579?l=zh&ls=1&mt=8 Download our APP on Google Play (Android): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.imib.cctv For more: https://www.cgtn.com/video Most watched videos: Impossible Challenge: 30 seconds to count banknotes BLINDFOLDED https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZmP_Ybj-jws Impossible Challenge: Gymnastics Boy Arat Hosseini from Iran! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8sxX--U4c8w Impossible Challenge: How to calm babies in 5 seconds? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kR3q9sXM7WA
