A bald eagle was rescued on Sunday, Oct. 25, in Llano County after it was struck by a vehicle. 

According to the Llano County Sheriff’s Office, the eagle was reportedly hit by a vehicle at around 2 p.m. on Sunday. The bird landed in a roadside ditch and was noticed by another motorist who then contacted the Sheriff’s Office for assistance. 

Texas Parks and Wildlife game wardens recovered the bird, alive, and transported it to a wildlife recovery center in Gillespie County. 

“We appreciate the concerned motorist who took the time to report the incident and the game wardens who responded to help this magnificent bird,” reads a statement issued by LCSO. “May the symbol of our freedom soar over the land of the free and the home of the brave.”
