Hawk Trapped In Thunderbird Bumper (1 Viewer)

[ceasar]

A live Red-tailed Hawk trapped inside the front bumper of a Ford Thunderbird was found and rescued soon after the car was delivered to a dealer in Northeast Pennsylvania. The bird had an injured wing but is in good shape otherwise and was taken to the Delaware Valley Raptor Center in Milford, PA yesterday. It required replacing an $1100.00 part to free the bird.

Unfortunately a later report from the 2nd Daily Newspaper we have in our area disclosed that the Raptor Center had to euthanize the bird because it had more extensive injuries than were originally reported.

Never the less all parties involved in this effort to rehabilitate the bird deserve commendation!
