The ostriches at the Universal Ostrich Farm in Edgewood, B.C., were culled in November 2025, following an unsuccessful legal challenge from the farm to prevent the cull.
Erica Van Meehan, the owner of Abigail Equestrian in Vernon, says an intruder triggered her security cameras early on Saturday morning.
An officer pulled an Acura over on Jan. 9 at 4 p.m. on Highway 3 near Christina Lake after he clocked the vehicle going 130 km/h in an 80 km/h zone.
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency issued the fine, alleging Universal Ostrich Farm failed to notify authorities about the presence of avian flu on the property.
“Apparently, neighbours had been calling bylaw saying something is not right over there,” Judanna Dawn with Angel’s Animal Rescue told Global News.
An investigation has been launched in a bench-clearing minor hockey fight in the Okanagan that allegedly had coaches scrapping on the ice.
‘This was an act by a person,’ Matt Affleck with the BC SPCA said. ‘Somebody did this to this dog… Somebody just tied it up and left it for dead.’
“We’ve spent about now, about $9,000 in the last year and a half on windows,” said Michael Neill, who owns Mosaic Books told Global Okanagan last week.
The offence happened in the early morning hours of Wednesday in downtown Kelowna and was caught on the store’s security video and shared with Global News.
