What are the ostriches for? Are they on a farm and sold as meat? If it's a health issue sure let the ostriches live but ban the meat from being sold. Separate them from those that will be sold for meat.
Otherwise what would happen if a zoo had some rare bird catch avian flu? Would they be forced to kill all of the other rare birds in the zoo?
The problem with that is that the virus stays in the area, meaning other flocks (ie: chickens or turkeys) can become infected.
