Juvenile Owl Rescue

Officer Rodriguez was recently dispatched to a home in Mission Viejo to investigate a baby owl that was standing on the sidewalk - when the officer arrived he discovered that the owl was injured.  The owl was transported to a local wildlife rehabilitator, where the injuries will be treated and then the owl will be released when fully healed.

Mission Viejo Animal Services officers respond to calls regarding injured wildlife, but do not remove or relocate healthy wildlife.
