Minnesota officials reported highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N1 in a baby goat in Stevens County, the first US livestock detection. The goat lived on a farm where poultry had recently been culled after a February outbreak, and all species on the farm were quarantined.
The detection is a single farm, so its direct effect on feed or livestock prices is limited. It does point to possible spread across mixed-species farms.
