The pathogen was found in elephant seals and fur seals, the environmental authority Animal Plant Health Agency (Apha) in London announced on Thursday. She tested animals on the island of South Georgia for the H5N1 virus following several brown skua (Stercorarius antarcticus) were found dead there in October.
