Farley has been at NIWRA for a long time. I first met him there, about a decade ago & he'd been there for awhile at that time.

You can support Farley:

Farley was found near 100 Mile House BC after being hit by a vehicle. The collision resulted in a badly broken wing which had to be partially amputated. He cannot fly and will live here at the Centre as a permanent, non-releasable resident.

Sandor - #BaldEagle doing his annual ground nest building. He does it every Spring. Even though he's unable to mate or fly to build nest high up, his natural nest building instinct is still strong. He's been at #NIWRA for 25 years. I first met him, a few months after he arrived & was in very critical/near death condition. He made a great recovery but his broken wing never fully recovered, so he can't fly. He's a resident animal ambassador.

You can support Sandor's ongoing care by a supporter adoption :

Opal, one of two white #ravens who are longtime residents at North Island Wildlife Recovery Center. She's not albino, please ignore my verbal error in vid.

Opal arrived at NIWRA centre in 2024 after being found with damaged feathers and reduced flight ability. In addition to her injuries, Opal has a condition called #leucism, which causes partial loss of pigmentation, making her more visible to predators, and results in weaker feather condition. She will remain at the centre.

Casey - #BaldEagle with a broken wing.

Casey was found on the ground with no nest nearby. He has a non-repairable dislocated wing and will live at the Centre for the rest of his life. He is an #AnimalAmbassador in their education program.
