SPCA Monterey County in California recently shared a video of a bald eagle taking flight after six months of rehab. The eagle came to the facility with severe injuries, including signs of electrocution. The wildlife rescue team wrapped the bird’s wing to heal a fracture, gave it medication, cold laser treatment, and physical therapy. A licensed falconer provided strength training, and towards the end of its recovery, the bird was taken to a 100-foot flight aviary where he showed his strength and agility. The group said watching him circle above the landscape before continuing on his journey was a moment they won’t soon forget. The wildlife center rescues more than 2,500 injured and orphaned animals annually.
