A red-tailed hawk patient. |
We have received 154 wild patients so far in 2014. We currently have 75 patients, some of which were admitted in 2013. Some are in individual patient cages while their injuries heal. Others are in large flight rooms or outside in the rehabilitation courtyard for exercise before their release. We update our clinic patient census weekly on our webpage here. The following table shows the patient census by species:

Sad that so many birds need our help, but so glad that they have TRC to provide the TLC to get them back to the wild.
