Caught and injured wild bird and took it to the vet?
Ok, so I finally caught this magpie as he had a broken wing and could not fly. It all started when I had noticed him when I was walking down to the park. I think it caused him A LOT of distress and probably made his wing worst. Apparently there was also a few other magpies swooping and being mean to him. I asked my friends and they said that magpies eat other magpies. So we just could not leave him. When we finally caught him we took him to the vet. We have not got the results back, as we had to leave the bird in the vet`s care as he was busy. Now I feel bad that I took him away from his family and friends and there is a possibility that he may be euthanized. A lady said that she had seen him a couple times and said he had been ok, but I still wasn’t`t sure it was such a good idea to just leave him and not to do anything about his wing. Do you think I did the right thing (I was only trying to help the poor bird)? Do you think they can fix his wing or will he need to be euthanized?
Don’t worry you did the right thing. I have been faced with this many times. If you did not bring him he would be killed by predators even his own magpie buddies as he is a threat to their well being. The vet will xray the wing and if it can be fixed they will set it bandage it and send off to wildlife rehabber. All vet have them or know them. then the rehabber will rehab until bird can be released and take care of itself. If the wing is to badly broken and cannot be mended then he will be euthanized which is a much better way to die than being picked apart alive. So don’t even second guess yourself. You did good and I’m sure the bird is grateful in its own way.
