A technician at Broadway Pet Hospital helps a neighbor who walked in with an injured bird on 4/22/2022.
The staff at Broadway Pet Hospital freed this bird from a thread that that the bird had tightly knotted around its leg in its frantic efforts to free itself. It took a lot of skill, care and just the right cutting tool to remove that knot without injuring the bird.
That knot was so tight it must have been very painful and constricted blood circulation to his foot. Before the knot was removed, by the tech at Broadway Pet Hospital, the bird had been lying on its back & was breathing very heavily. After the painful restriction was removed, it sat upright.
