After taking radiographs, we also discovered the bird had sustained a broken ulna.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to IV fluids, the bird was stabilized with <a href=\"https:\/\/emeraid.com\/vet\/emeraid-piscivore\/\">EmerAid IC Piscivore<\/a>, which was essential to putting this bird on the road to recovery. It needed the extra nutritional support for an entire week before finally feeling well enough to eat on its own.<\/p>\n<p>Once the fracture was stabilized, the bird started flying and exercising in our large pelican aviary.<\/p>\n<p>After about two months in care it was strong enough to return to the wild and was released at a local wetland into a group of other American white pelicans.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An American white pelican is found walking down a road and is found to have a broken ulna and other health issues that the International Bird Rescue treats to help it recover.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":10583,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_themeisle_gutenberg_block_has_review":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10582","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-featured"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
