Bald Eagle Rescued from Roadside in Volusia County

A bald eagle found injured in Volusia County, Florida, is receiving care after being rescued by local animal services. The eagle was discovered on the side of the road with injuries to its wing and mouth, prompting a swift response from officials who transported it to the Maitland Bird Center for further treatment. Meanwhile, a previously banded bald eagle from New York was reported alive in Georgia, having successfully recovered from a serious injury sustained in 2021. This highlights ongoing conservation efforts, as banding helps track the movements and health of these majestic birds. The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation has expressed gratitude for the public's role in reporting sightings, which is crucial for wildlife management. Residents are encouraged to report any injured wildlife promptly to aid in their recovery.
