SpaceX rocket launches and engine tests, and even just moving certain equipment around the launch base, requires closing a local highway and access to Boca Chica State Park and Boca Chica Beach.

Meanwhile, an adolescent in the household got sick but tested negative for flu.The other cat that died lived in a different household. That pet belonged to a dairy worker who transported raw milk and reported frequent splashes of milk on the face, eyes and clothing. That worker reported eye irritation, a possible symptom of bird flu, two days before the cat got sick.

The cat was known to roll in the worker’s dirty clothing and died within a day of developing signs of infection, the study authors wrote. Another cat in that household tested negative for the virus.In both instances, the dairy workers declined to be tested for H5N1, the study said.That means it’s impossible to know whether they directly transmitted the virus to their cats, said Dr. Keith Poulsen, director of the Wisconsin Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory. It’s more likely that the cats were infected by virus on the workers’ clothing, boots or hands, he said.

“We know that people at this point are not shedding large amounts of virus,” he said. “I don’t think it’s because this person coughed on their cat.”The study concluded that reports of bird flu infections in indoor cats are rare, but “such cats might pose a risk for human infection.”

In the months since the cats died, there have been several reports of domestic cats becoming infected and dying after

contaminated with bird flu.Veterinarians and animals traveled along the freeway to seaside Mazatlan, where they released the animals into another wildlife reserve. Their caravan of vehicles flying large white flags, in a sign of peace, rolled past young men in black ski masks perched on motorcycles who watched them intently — a reminder of what the animals and refuge workers were leaving behind.

The relocation came after months of planning and training the animals, a move made by the organization in an act of desperation. They said the sanctuary was caught in the crossfire of the warfare because of its proximity to the town of Jesús María, a stronghold ofone of the warring factions.

During intense periods of violence, staff at the sanctuary could hear gunshots echoing nearby, the roar of cars and helicopters overhead, something they say scares the animals. Cartel fighting regularly blocked staff off from reaching the sanctuary, and some animals went days without eating. Many have started to lose fur and at least two have died due to the situation, Zazueta said.Complicating matters is the fact that an increasing number of the animals they rescue are
