Tom and I got a call from a local lady asking for us to help her. She had an injured pigeon. She took it to Lake Tahoe Wildlife Care (LTWC) for help. They told her they would NOT help it because it was Non-Native. LTWC gave her a list of other contacts that could help. She remembered my name so she called and we said, ‘Of course, bring it out’.
It is a healthy pigeon with a wound on both sides of its breast. It appeared to have been shot by a B-B gun. I will always help birds or animals. THAT is why I started LTWC in the first place in 1978.
I currently work under the permits issued to Nor-Cal Bats and are covered by them, to help care for infant or adult bats.
So, if EVER I can help with any domestic birds or animals – OR BATS – please call me.
