Chiayi agriculture officials are trying to find where over a dozen dead
chickens came from.

16 dead birds were discovered in the county’s Shenkeng village.

Cleanup grews have disinfected the area where the dead birds were found out
of concerns that they could have carried bird flu.

The bodies are being tested for the disease.

The officials are looking for whoever dumped the chickens, as they can be
fined up to $1 million NT for improperly disposing of dead poultry.

A similar case involving a dead pig is being investigated in Yilan.

Authorities there are urging calm while they wait for a report on the cause
of death to come out.    [FULL  STORY]
