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.

Evelyn placed a splint on the leg of this young jackrabbit to facilitate the healing process. Prognosis is excellent.
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!
The orphaned pronghorn fawn that came in early summer was released in good habitat. .
