Disfigured Eagle to Get Artificial Beak
Nicholas K. Geranios, Associated Press
May 5, 2008 -- She has been named Beauty, though this eagle is anything but. Part of Beauty's beak was shot off several years ago, leaving her with a stump that is useless for hunting food. A team of volunteers is working to attach an artificial beak to the disfigured bird, in an effort to keep her alive. . . .more

I saw that yesterday along with this article about a dolphin who was fitted with a prosthetic tail.
Ironic that humans created their problems and came up with ways to help them out. _________________ Greg Littlefield

Fitting, really. So to speak.
Pretty amazing. And all volunteers, so there will be no bill.
Somebody stop me. |

Yep.
. . . same as it ever was, though— there are stewards and there are plunderers.
Hooray for the volunteers. _________________ DBCooperVO.com

I'm grateful that there are people who are willing to see the problem and work toward solutions.

Thanks for posting that Mary. I always wonder what happens when these stories fall off the news radar. |

Less ironic, though, that it's rarely the same people who cause the problems as those who fix them. _________________ Lou Zucaro
