H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4.b is a nasty bugger.
Infecting over 90 bird species and 21 mammalian species globally, including recent infections in humans.
Evidence of pronounced neurological impacts, has been observed in several mammalian species, including sea lions, red foxes, and now domestic cats.
Besides pigs, cats now seem to be a good mixing vessel as well.

Oh, and H5N1 goes undetected in horses.
North America is home to 30% of the global equine population, where many horses are likely to be exposed to H5N1 infected animals in agricultural settings.
Horses are already known to carry equine flu—H3N8—and researchers say that now, with the knowledge that they can also be infected with avian flu these animals should be monitored to help prevent viruses from combining, with unknown consequences.

They were in absolutely no hurry.
The meadow wasn't going anywhere, and neither were they. There was no need to hustle from bush to grass to clump to tree; it was enough to quietly amble and check out the offerings.
The surroundings were peaceful, the day warm, and the company pleasant.
So why would they rush?

Abstract
Recent outbreaks of influenza A(H5N1) have affected many mammal species. We report serologic evidence of H5N1 virus infection in horses in Mongolia. Because H3N8 equine influenza virus is endemic in many countries, horses should be monitored to prevent reassortment between equine and avian influenza viruses with unknown consequences.
