The following are excerpts from recent Texas Parks and Wildlife Department law enforcement reports
Caldwell County Game Warden Joann Garza-Mayberry responded to an injured bald eagle call. She arrived to find the mature bald eagle unable to fly. Warden Mayberry captured the eagle for transport to Austin Wildlife Rehabilitation Center in Elgin. Along the way, she visited a local school for an impromptu wildlife program on eagles. Veterinarians determined that the eagle suffered a broken right wing. It was not clear what caused the injury. The attending vet chose to explore medical opinions on the best course of treatment for the eagle.
