Together, these studies show that absence of detection is not absence of threat. H5N1 still demands active surveillance, strict biosecurity, and continuous monitoring at animal–human–food interfaces.

Feral animals, biosecurity and careers on agenda for young Aboriginal rangers When you bring more than 200 Aboriginal rangers together from mobs across nearly all of South Australia, you get a lot of laughter and a fair bit of good-natured teasing. But also, an invaluable shared learning experience to inspire those taking on the job of caring for Country. The first ever South Australian Aboriginal Land and Sea Ranger Conference took place in Hahndorf last month, organised jointly by the Alinytjara Wiluṟara Landscape Board and Daryle Clarke of the Ngarrindjeri Aboriginal Corporation's Yarluwar-Ruwe Rangers. Many of the young rangers have three years or more of formal recognition and experience under their belts. Others are just starting out in their careers and will be joined by more newcomers following the announcement late last year that the federal government will fund another 82 ranger projects across the country. Shared challenges Currently there are 29 Indigenous ranger groups in South Australia, and Mr Clarke said the conference was a chance for them to network, and understand their shared challenges. Kim Krebs is the general manager of the Alinytjara Wiluṟara Landscape Board. The area the board covers stretches for more than 250,000 square kilometres; covering the Aṉangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara (APY) lands, Maralinga Tjarutja, the far...
