The terms poultry and non-poultry in the context of reporting HPAI results refers to the World Organization for Animal Health definition for country reporting/trade purposes. The U.S. Department of Agriculture uses the definition for HPAI detections. Poultry is defined as all domesticated birds, including backyard poultry, used for the production of meat or eggs for consumption (this includes selling or giving away meat or eggs). Birds (including chickens) that are kept in captivity reasons other than as defined above (including those that are kept for shows, competitions,  breeding, or as pets) are not considered to be poultry.
