17 Conclusion Huge numbers of wild birds migrate to Japan every year, and a large volume of poultry and poultry products are imported. Therefore, veterinary services must play close attention to surveillance of domestic poultry and wild birds nationwide to detect this disease early.

18 Conclusion (2) Furthermore, the wild birds migrate on a global scale. Similar problems could be always happened in any other countries. Comprehensive surveillance in wild birds with international cooperation is required for efficient global control of HPAI. It is important that all diagnosis institutes rapidly report information about outbreaks and causal viruses to the public in order to take preemptive measures against further HPAI occurrences.
