Watch out for those talons!


This is Jeremy and Taylor trimming talons on our Red Tailed Hawk. 
She’s wrapped  up in the towel!


A wild bird of prey would be able to keep their beaks and talons trimmed in the wild by the different food they eat and perches they use. While we give them different substrates for perches, they cannot effectively keep their beaks and talons trimmed well so we have to help them!
