Waterfowl hunting

Calling All Waterfowl Hunters!

The University of Georgia and the Georgia Division of Public Health have partnered to conduct a research study on avian influenza viruses (bird flu) and potential human exposures. Since the Asian strain H5N1 virus has not reached North American bird populations, the United States must rely on data from other countries for avian influenza planning. Your participation in our study will provide researchers, planners and stakeholders with data that may help to identify differences between the United States and other countries.

As a hunter, we’d like to know a few things about where you hunt, what you hunt, and what you do with your harvested birds. In addition, we have a few questions about avian influenza or "bird flu." This survey is completely anonymous! It does NOT collect any identifying information, such as name, phone number, or address.

Please click on this link to complete the survey. It will only take about 5-10 minutes. We appreciate your help with this important research! Each and every survey counts! Thank you for your time!
