The left inguinal region on the owl. I removed a huge area of necrotic tissue. It was very infected; I don't expect it will hold well.
The orthopedic owl. She had a complete fracture of the left radius and two complete fractures of the ulna. An IM pin was placed in both bones as well as an external fixator placed on the ulna. Prognosis for flight is poor. :(
Feeding the elephant some grapes.
Mr. Green Genes. Read more about him here.
The leg of a goose that was tangled in fishing line. Luckily we cut off the fishing line and saved his leg.
This guy wasn't so lucky. The fishing line strangled his foot so badly that it fell off (he came in without a foot). They don't do well on one leg.
A bird with pox. Can you count how many pox lesions he has?
