For the second time in 10 days, Charlestown heroes save local wildlife.
By Will Collette
On Monday, they did it again, rescuing a beautiful bird, a barred owl, and lining up medical treatment.
Like the earlier doe rescue, this was a wonderful bit of good news to cheer us in these hard times.
Here's the report on the incident from the CPD's Facebook page:
Earlier today, officers responded to an unusual call—a beautiful, barred owl in distress was spotted by a concerned resident. After carefully securing the feathered friend, D.E.M safely transported the owl to the Wildlife Rehabilitators Association of Rhode Island.
This dedicated organization will ensure the owl receives the care it needs to recover and, hopefully, return to the wild where it belongs.
A big thank you to the community member who alerted us and to the Wildlife Rehabilitators Association for their incredible work in protecting our local wildlife.
