Highly pathogenic bird flu has been found in five wild geese.
This is stated by the Danish Veterinary and Food Administration on Twitter.
The finds were made at the border north of Flensburg, Skærbæk, Als, Vejle and Aalborg.
On Thursday, the agency stated that hundreds of dead birds had been found in Southern Jutland.
They were suspected to be infected with H5N8 bird flu.
Last week, a dead peregrine falcon was found on Lolland with bird flu.
Avian influenza can become a serious problem if detected in bird herds.
Therefore, requirements have also been introduced that all poultry herds with an area of more than 40 square meters are covered.
This should prevent wild birds from entering the enclosures.
At the same time, a ban has been introduced on events with poultry and birds.
Earlier this month, the agency raised the risk level for bird flu in Denmark from “very low” to “high”.
This is because different types of bird flu are currently circulating in Europe.
According to the Danish Veterinary and Food Administration, no infection has previously been reported in people with the types of bird flu that are in circulation.
The Danish Veterinary and Food Administration has previously asked everyone who finds dead birds to report the finding via the app “FugleinfluenzaTip”.
The agency encourages all poultry farmers – whether on a hobby or professional level – to change and disinfect footwear before moving into a chicken farm.
