Prince Edward Island bald eagle receives rare surgery, heads to new home in Halifax
He won’t be able to soar into the skies or skim the waters with his wings, but a bald eagle treated at a veterinary college at the University of Prince Edward Island after being hit by a car in October 2021 is doing well and settling in a new home.
“That was very exciting. A week after the surgery, the eagle was able to stand, so we knew that we were going in the right direction,” de Bie said. And while the spinal surgery was a success, she said it was the secondary injuries that were particularly troubling. The bird, she said, had a long recovery ahead.
“I always call animals, ‘Hey, buddy,’” de Bie said. “Usually I wouldn’t talk to wildlife at all because we want them to be released. But sometimes, I just say ‘buddy,’ and I think one of the reporters picked up on that. And then it became Buddy.”
