Kia the Red Tail Hawk

Kia

Red Tail Hawk

At only one and a half years old, Kia was struck by a car on a highway in New Britain CT. The collision broke two of the bones in her right wing, but luckily a kind hearted man stopped, safely picked her up and drove her to the closest vets.

The veterinarians tried as hard as they could to save her wing, however, the damage was too great and they had to amputate part of her wing. Due to these injuries, Kia now resides at the Center.

Since her arrival in January of 2015 Kia has settled in very nicely; making friends with the vultures, sunbathing, watching the squirrels, and showing off her impressive size and beauty to visitors.
