Caution - Avian flu - Keep dogs on leads - Do not touch wild birds - Do not feed wildlife - Multi-message - Safety Signs by Caledonia Signs

Multi-message sign is designed to protect both public health and wildlife during outbreaks of avian influenza. Avian flu is highly contagious among birds and can occasionally pose risks to humans or domestic animals. This sign communicates multiple safety precautions in one location, helping prevent the spread of disease and minimizing human-wildlife contact. It also reinforces responsible behaviour to safeguard pets, wildlife, and people.

This sign should be placed in parks, nature reserves, lakesides, wetlands, and other areas where wild birds congregate or people may walk with dogs. Strategic placement near entrances, footpaths, picnic areas, and water bodies ensures that visitors see the precautions before entering areas where they might encounter wild birds. It is particularly important in high-traffic areas and during periods of known avian flu outbreaks to maximise awareness and compliance.

Each message on the sign serves a specific purpose: “Keep Dogs on Leads” prevents pets from chasing or disturbing wild birds, which could spread the virus. “Do Not Touch Wild Birds” reduces the risk of zoonotic transmission, while “Do Not Feed Wildlife” discourages gatherings of birds and limits opportunities for disease spread. Together, these instructions provide clear guidance for safe interaction with the environment.

Overall, using this multi-message sign is crucial for public safety, wildlife protection, and disease control. It helps reduce the risk of avian flu transmission, educates the public about responsible behaviour, and ensures a coordinated approach to health and environmental management during outbreaks.
