Supreme Court of Canada grants stay on cull of 400 ostriches

September 24, 2025

The Supreme Court of Canada has put a temporary stop to plans by the federal food safety agency to cull 400 ostriches once infected with avian flu while the high court decides on whether to hear an appeal to save the fowl.

On Wednesday, Justice Michelle O’Bonsawin ordered the Canadian Food Inspection Agency to maintain custody of the ostriches on the farm in Edgewood, B.C., and she granted a stay of proceedings in the cull ordered last December.
