Twenty Five Injured Birds Survived Oil Spill and Released Back into the Wild

Posted Wednesday, November 18, 2009

Featured on Episode 10 of the 2009-2010 season

 

Fifteen birds were released back to the wild on Friday. They were some of the birds that were rescued after they were injured in the recent oil spill in San Francisco Bay. Without help from local wildlife workers they might not have survived, as you saw a few weeks ago. But after their rehab, they were healthy and ready to go. Ten birds were released earlier in the week. A few more birds still need some time to recover.
