Red-Tailed Hawk Case

Juvenile red-tailed hawk 24-2042 arrived on September 14 with an ulnar (wing) fracture and ocular (eye) trauma. We provided pain relief medications, topical eye drops, and managed the ulnar fracture with a figure-8 bandage. Once healed, this patient was conditioned for release through a process called creancing.
