A volunteer went out to rescue and bring the owl to Think Wild for care.<\/p>\n<p>Upon intake, Think Wild staff found the owl to be extremely hypothermic, having a chilly temperature of only 96 degrees Fahrenheit (normal temperature is around 104). In addition, the great horned owl presented severe emaciation. Although emaciation would suggest that food is needed as soon as possible, whole food cannot be offered right away. Rehydrating and then offering an easily digestible elemental diet is imperative in ensuring the successful recovery of an emaciated raptor.<\/p>\n<p>After a full assessment, the owl was quickly put on Think Wild\u2019s emaciation protocol. In the emaciation protocol, <a href=\"https:\/\/emeraid.com\/vet\/emeraid-carnivore\/\">EmerAid IC Carnivore<\/a> is utilized to ensure the owl is getting vital nutrients in addition to rehydration, helping the starving animal bounce back from this very critical state.<\/p>\n<p>The success of Think Wild\u2019s emaciation protocol could not happen without the use of EmerAid. Because of these protocols and EmerAid, the great horned owl has made a full recovery and hopefully will be released in the near future. Having this essential product in our tool kit has allowed Think Wild to care for and provide a second chance at life to injured and\/or orphaned raptors in the fastest, most effective way possible.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Think Wild saves the life of a great horned own by quickly putting it on the organization&#8217;s emaciation protocol after the owl was found unable to fly and slowly starving.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":9351,"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-9350","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 v27.1.1 -
