short-tailed hawk is admitted into rehab

This short-tailed hawk was caught in a barbed-wire fence. Due to the extent of the injuries, he could not be released, so he became a wonderful education ambassador at the Audubon Center for Birds of Prey. For more than 12 years he helped staff teach many people about his species and how critical they are as part of our ecosystem. Courtesy of Samantha Little, Audubon Center for Birds of Prey.
