10,000 Birds

So I asked seven wildlife rehabilitators, “Tell me your favorite (or one of your favorites) release story – the kind that makes you keep going, in spite of everything.”. “A Sophie had serious doubts about whether she was really a bird. Sophie the Scissortail was the most difficult but the most satisfying bird of the season.”.

This guest blog was written by Debbie Souza-Pappas, the director and founder of Second Chance Wildlife Rehabilitation in Price, Utah. It seemed whoever set the trap had ‘released’ the injured eagle upon finding him, as the bird could not have freed himself without the loss of the entire foot. This was going to be a tough case.

Not having a smart phone, I called a friend in New York and had him Google up some wildlife rehabilitators’ numbers, but they were all out of service. They were negative for rabies, and were currently being tested for poison exposure. Leaving it there did not seem like a good option. A different Hoary Bat, on a better day.
