I am sure all of us animal lovers have stories of how we have helped the animals around us! One example of this happened several days ago with a little traumatised bird found laying on the ground, after it had crashed into a window.

Many times we at Karuna are not able to do much medically to help such tiny birds, plus the capture and travel adds to the stress which can be fatal in many cases even though the actual injury isn’t dangerous at all.

People should bring the bird to our clinic only if it definitely needs treatment. Otherwise, we can advise them over the phone or WhatsApp, to identify if it is serious or not.

In this case, our Wildlife Manager Crystal gave advise on WhatsApp to our local supporter Neetu, who found the bird. This bird drank a drop or two of honey, rested a bit and then flew away – fully recovered! It is another success story for Karuna, our supporter and the animal!
