First off, please keep in mind that shipping your feathered friend is going to be MORE EXPENSIVE, & COMPLEX<\/strong> than shipping a dog or cat. Avian flu, also known as HPAI [Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza] is prevalent worldwide and may countries are very protective on imports and exports of birds because of this. To read more on Avian Flu \u2013 see USDA<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n
