A cat raided a rabbit’s nest. Hopefully this 9 day old cottontail, with eyes still closed,
will grow strong & then when old enough be returned to the wild.

A Red-tailed Hawk will be released in early 2014. Injured on Highway 395 in Douglas County, NV., the Red-tailed Hawk successfully recovered at Dayton Valley Wildlife Reststop.

A good Samaritan brought in a Red-tail Hawk found standing by the side of the road. Evelyn determined the injuries, which luckily were minor. The raptor then did a quick recovery at DVWR and released into the Nevada sky!
