A hawk was rescued in the garage of a house in the Lagoinha neighborhood of Santa Rita do Passa Quatro, SP, on Tuesday, October 24. The homeowner alerted veterinarian Jean Daniel Brito, who arrived around noon to assess the situation. The hawk had a notable injury under its right wing described as a possible perforation along with a broken wing, although the precise cause of the injuries remains unknown.

Upon rescuing the hawk, Veterinarian Brito captured the bird using specialized equipment and transported it to a veterinary clinic for examination and treatment. He expressed concerns about the hawk's ability to return to its natural habitat, noting that it was unlikely the bird would be able to fly again due to the severity of its injury. The rescue efforts demonstrate the important role of local wildlife rehabilitation and the challenges faced in caring for injured animals.

The next steps involve finding a sanctuary for the hawk, as indicated by the veterinarian, since he believes the bird's chances of recovery and returning to the wild are minimal. This situation highlights the broader issues of wildlife conservation and the impact of human activities on local ecosystems.
