IRIS PIGMENTATION IRREGULARITIES FOLLOWING AN AVIAN INFLUENZA OUTBREAK: IMPLICATIONS FOR DISEASE SURVEILLANCE AND POPULATION MONITORING IN A COLONIAL SEABIRD

Christina Petalas, Jolene A. Giacinti, Jennifer Francoise Provencher…·Yannick Seyer

This study links irregular iris pigmentation in Northern Gannets to past exposure to HPAIV H5N1, showing it can serve as a non-invasive marker for disease surveillance.
