“Our team safely secured the bird, and it’s now on its way to receive specialized care at Austin Wildlife Rescue,” the animal center said.
If anyone sees a sick or injured wildlife in Austin, the animal center said do not attempt to handle the animal.
“Wild animals can be easily stressed or may react defensively when approached,” the animal center said. “Instead, call 311 so our officers can respond safely and appropriately.”
