| A red-tailed hawk patient. |
We have received 44 wild patients so
far in 2015. We currently have 55 patients. Some of these were
admitted in 2014. Some are in individual patient cages while their
injuries heal. Others are in large flight rooms or in managed
areas for exercise before their release. You can see our clinic patient census weekly on our website here.
The following table shows the patient census by species:

As always, we could not do this work without the help of so many. Our volunteers come in on cold, snowy days. And you, our friends, continue to support us with your generous gifts to help us be there for these sick and injured raptor patients.
