As summer heats up in Canada, the mosquito population is on the rise, bringing with it an increased risk of West Nile virus, a potentially deadly disease.
Corvids like Crows, ravens, and magpies/jays are very susceptible to West Nile virus and are often indicators that the virus may be spreading in an area. If you find a dead Corvid you should report it so that the corpse can be tested to see if it died due to the virus.
