Rare golden eagle recovering from injury with help of Illinois Raptor Center
(MCT) — DECATUR — When Jacques Nuzzo received a call from a state conservation officer about an injured golden eagle found in a field north of Sadorus on Oct. 25, he thought it was a case of mistaken identity.
“A lot of people misidentify immature bald eagles as golden eagles,” said Nuzzo, program director for the Illinois Raptor Center. “The chance of it being a golden eagle was next to nothing.”
