<p>COPENHAGEN (Reuters) -Denmark will cull 150,000 chickens after detecting an outbreak of the highly contagious H5N1 bird flu virus in a flock in the southeastern part of the country's Jutland peninsula, the Danish Veterinary and Food Administration said on Wednesday.</p>
<p>The agency said in a statement the outbreak is the first in a Danish poultry flock since April when it lifted restrictions on poultry farming imposed in December 2024.</p>
<p>It said in December owners of poultry and other captive birds must keep their animals indoors or under cover, citing an increased risk of infection.</p>
<p>The Dutch government on Tuesday announced it would cull 71,000 chickens at a poultry farm in the northern part of the Netherlands following the detection of bird flu.</p>
