Care for the Raptors

Share:

This adult Bald Eagle was seen sitting at the side of a road on San Juan Island. When our rehab staff arrived, they discovered that one of the eagle’s wings was drooping badly and it was unable to fly. It was found close to the carcass of a deer that had been killed by a car, so they assumed that the eagle had been feeding on the deer and had been hit by a car when it flew up from the side of the road.

There was a lot of bleeding, exposed bone, and tissue damage on the right wing. However, X-rays were taken and showed that there were no broken bones. We cleaned and bandaged the wounds and wrapped the wing to allow it to heal. It took over 2 months of care before the wounds had healed completely and the eagle was able to fly strongly enough to be ready for released back into the wild.
