Rehabilitating the Eaglet

 

Ingela saved an eaglet.  Won't be released into the wild, but might be an ambassador:
After the chick fell, Kaersvang sprang into action, making her way to the base of the tree. When he raised his head and she realized he had survived his terrible fall, she knew he needed help. One of his wings hung limply by his side: he was clearly injured. She immediately phoned the California Raptor Center, then Yolo County Animal Services. Officer Breckenridge retrieved the eaglet and delivered him to the UC Davis Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital, which partners with the CRC in treating birds of prey.
