MS: Wounded bald eagle found at Reservoir area

December 9, 2014

From ClarionLedger.com

Two bald eagles were discovered, one apparently shot and wounded, near the Barnett Reservoir Sunday and the wounded bird was later rushed to an animal hospital to be treated.

A man found the eagles sitting on the ground, appearing to be incapable of flying. The wounded bird had blood on its head. X-rays revealed several shotgun pellets lodged in the skin but it was unclear if that was what caused the bleeding.
