Luckily for the gull, a caring person noticed it as she walked by. The rescuer approached the gull and even with a human nearby, it did not fly away. She knew the animal needed assistance and called a friend to see if they could capture it. Together they carefully corralled the bird and, after calling Greenwood, were directed to bring the bird to a triage center near them.<\/p>\n<p>A veterinarian there performed an initial evaluation and decided that the gull looked healthy enough to make the trip to Greenwood, where a licensed rehabilitator could further assess its injuries. Upon arrival, the rehabilitation team found the bird had a long list of ailments, including an injured head, a painful right foot, dehydration, and emaciation.<\/p>\n<p>We aren&#8217;t sure what happened to this shorebird. Antibiotics, pain medication, a deworming agent, and some much-needed food (including <a href=\"https:\/\/emeraid.com\/vet\/emeraid-piscivore\/\">EmerAid<\/a>) and water, helped the gull recover. It was released a mere eight days later near where it was found.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A ring-billed gull suffering numerous ailments is taken to Greenwood Wildlife Rehabilitation Center to get the care needed for recovery and release.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":9625,"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-9624","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 -
