BE 05-47

BE 05-47 was brought into the clinic yesterday by Rick Sinnott of the Alaska Dept of Fish and Game. We believe it's a victim of a car hit. There seems to be some possible spinal injury. The bird is resting for now. I'll get with Cindy Palmatier, Bird TLC Rehabilitation Director tomorrow for more details.

Sad news, BE 05-47 has passed on. Cindy Palmitier said there was too much damage, way too much for it to over come.

It was a first year eagle. Believed to be feeding on a porcipine corpse on the side of the road. It was unable to gain enough altitude to avoid on coming traffic and was hit hard.
