Birds on display at the Tanana Valley State Fair typically include geese, turkeys, chickens and ducks. But for the first time in decades, there will be no poultry at the fair.
Fairgoers in the poultry tent at the Tanana Valley State Fair in Fairbanks in August, 2016.
“We really felt like it was in the best interest of people who bring their poultry to the fair, that we make sure that they’re safe and that we don’t cause any undue harm to those animals,” said Turner. “And that’s why we made that decision. And it was thoroughly vetted with our livestock committee, the state vet and our board of directors.”
Turner said when deciding to ban them organizers also took into account the fairgrounds’ location next to Creamer’s Field Migratory Waterfowl Refuge.
