Since 2021, the global wildlife pandemic caused by Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b (hereafter, HPAI) has impacted over 350 species of wild birds and 60 species of mammals (Klaassen and Wille 2023; FAO 2024). As well as the diversity of wildlife affected, HPAI is having population and species level consequences. For example, ~40% of Peruvian Pelicans in Peru, (Wille and Waldenstrom 2023; Leguia et al 2023) and 9% of all South American Sea lions (Plaza et al 2024) i...| SCAR
