Baby Rabbit w/Leg Splint

After months of constant care they successfully took their leave.

Evelyn placed a splint on the leg of this young jackrabbit to facilitate the healing process.  Prognosis is excellent.

The young Pronghorn Antelope is growing fast.  

The release of a Great Horned Owl and Red-tailed Hawk have kicked off the season.  New arrivals included  a Screech Owl & Golden Eagle and a rabbit  all are receiving the best care.

This time of year babies of various species are brought to DVWR for care.   Two Great Horned Owls recently arrived and received excellent prognosis. Once they achieve a certain level of growth and demonstrate hunting abilities they will be returned to the wild.
