Tree service guys rescue a vulture stuck in a tree - Catherine - 12-14-2022 A vulture got stuck in a tree in northern Kentucky. It had been there for six days. The Regional Association for the Protection or Treatment of Raptors had been getting calls. They called on Clark Tree Service and the guys were up to the challenge. The bird may have been 70 feet up a tree, but the tree worker climbed higher. The bird was freed and rescued by a RAPTOR worker. He is now being cared for and will eventually released to the wild. https://www.wlwt.com/article/tree-service-workers-save-large-bird-trapped-in-tree-for-days/42223525 That is a long way up a tree and it is an aggressive bird. That was very brave and caring to rescue the bird like that. He was dying slowly and he was clearly unable to free himself. Well done everyone. Because of their efforts a vulture has a chance to live out its life. RE: Tree service guys rescue a vulture stuck in a tree - LPC - 12-14-2022 This seems to be another website which only allows people in the USA and Canada to read its pages. I get the message "Sorry, this content is not available in your region." How did the vulture get trapped in the tree? RE: Tree service guys rescue a vulture stuck in a tree - Catherine - 12-15-2022 Somehow the birds foot was caught and it was hanging upside down and couldn't free itself. Quote:A couple of northern Kentucky tree trimmers saved a bird that was trapped in a large tree for days. I tried copying the video, but it won't allow it. So I copied part of the article. The bird was lucky they could get it down in time. That is a long way up a tree and most of us would not be able to climb that high and we wouldn't have any way of freeing the bird. RE: Tree service guys rescue a vulture stuck in a tree - LPC - 12-15-2022 An unusual story. Thank you for taking the time to copy it. Those tree surgeons certainly did "go the extra mile". RE: Tree service guys rescue a vulture stuck in a tree - Catherine - 12-16-2022 That is a long way up a tree. I know they work with trees, but they don't work with vultures. That took courage. |
