He has been progressing well. Appetite is superb and growth is consistent with his age.
He may never see the wild again
unless surgical intervention takes place.

This picture was taken prior to the first intervention by Dr. Gardner.
The Barnie was carefully anesthetised so the leg would relax. Dr. Gardner then wrapped the leg using a specially designed splint she developed for this particular case.
We were hoping for complete realignment and healing of all fractures.
June 26 we excitedly removed the splints. The knee and one fracture healed. The other fracture did not.

Well you ask yourself "what has this to do with me?" He needs your help. We need your help to get this procedure done. A ball park figure for this procedure is around $400.00-$500.00. Our wildlife has no insurance policies, only us. This summer we have been so overrun with juvenile Redtails, Red Shoulders, Owls, and vultures our resources have been depleted. We need your help.
We have a very narrow window of opportunity to get this procedure done. if you can spare $10, $20 or even more we need it.

This is a Barn Family we rescued and relocated in 2001. It was very succesful because we all worked together.
