Rare for Nevada

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

Three early hatch Red-tailed Hawk nestlings were blown from nest and brought to DVWR.

After arriving quite famished from migration and unable to fly, the Egret regained good health under Evelyn’s specialized care and was then released to a beneficial habitat.  

An orphaned Pronghorn Antelope was one of the recent arrivals at Dayton Valley Wildlife Reststop .  She is now a week old.  According to Nevada Department of Wildlife website, pronghorns at this age could already outrun a human!!   Evelyn keeps a close watch on her while feeding and all doors are double checked closed!!

Evelyn assessed just a short stay at DVWR for this young hawk. Possibly stunned from a window strike, proper nutrition will boost the hawk’s strength and flying skills in preparation for release.  

After a return to health at DVWR, this Red-tailed Hawk made a quick exit!
