Europe On High Alert Following H5N8 Bird Flu Cases

ROSTOCK, GERMANY - NOVEMBER 28: A pathologist at the state agriculture agency in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania (Landesamt fuer Landwirtschaft, Lebensmittelsicherheit und Fischerei Mecklenburg-Vorpommern) takes samples from the carcass of a wild duck at the agency lab to test for bird flu on November 28, 2014 in Rostock, Germany. Northern Europe is on high alert after cases of the H5N8 bird flu virus were confirmed in wild fowl and also at poultry farms in Germany, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom, and tens of thousands of animals have already been killed by authorities in an effort to stem the virus from spreading. Authorities believe the virus arrived with migrating birds from Asia. (Photo by Carsten Koall/Getty Images)
