CASES of avian flu in Scotland could increase in the coming weeks, an expert has warned.
Around 224,000 domestic birds have been culled in Scotland so far this year, as the disease has ripped through both wild and agricultural populations.
However, the outbreak has been significantly smaller in Scotland than in England, where 1.67 million turkeys and 2 million chickens have been culled due to the deadly H5N1 strain of the virus.
