До блогу A falcon returned to flight
The peregrine falcon is one of the fastest birds on the planet, so a wing injury robs it of the essential: the ability to hunt in a steep dive.This bird went through a long recovery. Rehabilitating a raptor means restoring hunting skills and stamina, not just healing the injury.Finally came the best moment of our work — the release. The peregrine rose into the sky healthy and free.
The peregrine falcon is one of the fastest birds on the planet, so a wing injury means losing the most important thing of all: the ability to hunt in headlong flight.
This bird went through a long recovery. Rehabilitating a predator is not only about healing the injury, but also about restoring hunting skills and stamina. We gradually increased the load until the falcon regained its former form.
At last came the best moment of our work — the release. The peregrine rose into the sky healthy and free.
