The situation
Residents of Tofino BC heard a gunshot and saw a truck driving away after a bit of searching they found the wounded bird and quickly took it to Rory’s refuge where it was then transported to the North Island Wildlife Recovery Centre in Errington, BC
The shot blew away most of his upper beak, leaving just the tip, which remained attached to his skull by a thin piece of cartilage. Some veterinarians suggest that he be put down but volunteers persevered, and slowly the bird started to recover.
Fixing the problem
That’s when Dr. Brian Andrews from Nanaimo, BC offered his services.
Andrews took an exact mould and then built a wax model for dental technician Fred Leak of Victoria, to work with.
Done!
When the mould was ready, Leak constructed a permanent prosthesis and tinted it yellow to match the rest of Brian’s beak.
With all the negativity of Walter Palmer lion killing incident I thought this would be a breath of fresh air.

I forgot owning eagle feathers was a no, no in the US. As a Native Indian Aboriginal Canadian we use the feathers and down in ceremonies.

Though, if we are using them in our ceremonies then we are using the whole animal in the traditional way. It's sacred; not a consumption.

I am fairly sure it is at the natives request, so they may keep certain traditions alive. I believe the eagle feather thing is a federal law

It is Natives need a license to collect feathers. Source: registered Choctaw native and tried to get license. Lots of paperwork

Why are eagle feathers even on the black market... :|
SomeGeographer
Because people are assholes.
FlamedLion
Lots of "herbal medicines" or weird things like them use stuff like thise. It's kinda like old eastern medicine practices using rhino horns.
Drakenborn
Lots of reasons but sometimes it's as simple as being told you can't have something. Many people really are just that petty and sad.
JohnCalvinCoolidgeJr
for the same reason anything is on the black market: it's illegal or highly taxed
nitro2k01
Those are necessary, but not sufficient reasons. There also has to be demand. So why is there demand for eagle feathers?
JohnCalvinCoolidgeJr
it's a racist law so that only "natives" as the government defines them can practice certain religious ceremonies
JohnCalvinCoolidgeJr
http://indiancountrytodaymedianetwork.com/2007/02/16/stokes-time-new-eagle-feather-law-90348
JohnCalvinCoolidgeJr
because the law requires not only that they prove their religion but ethnicity in order to practice religion which includes eagle feathers
malachitedragon
Or people are just dumb and superstitious. Like rhino horn, people think its an aphrodisiac. It, uh, isn't. At all.
BlueBomber05
Viagra is an aphrodisiac
JohnCalvinCoolidgeJr
that's why there is demand for it, yes. but, there's also the forbidden fruit nature of things that are banned that draws people

Americans did for a very long time until the bird was endangered and became a national symbol.
CartoonKing
Horrible people, my father always told me. But the plus column is that this bird is gonna be okay.

My great-uncle shot a bald eagle once by accident. Got out of trouble by paying to have it taxidermied and donating it to a museum.

We have it on good authority that this is the area where he uses to aim.

There are many who would want to communists, socialists, pigeon owners, muslims, dumbasses with shotguns, and terrorists.

Well... i shoot at my wife's bald eagle all the time
Nerdygasm
I'm ashamed at how long it took me to get this. Especially considering I'm a wife with a bald eagle of my own :S
Cheomesh
Bald eagle?
Nerdygasm
He said he "shoots at his wife's bald eagle all the time" meaning, shaved... underparts.

It's possible he wasn't shooting at it but when he saw it was hit, knowing it's illegal, he fled the scene.
logarithmsbitch
I'm pretty sure it's not illegal. Iirc, in some areas there are so many eagles they're a pest.
ArdentSlacker
I think being shot makes the eagle ill.
JohnMosesBrowning
Is it illegal in Canada?
hyptosis
You should be a lawyer.

I used to be a kid so I've had lots of practice.

It's also possible the hooker I banged without a condom wasn't the source of my STD.
stevegoodsex
Improbable, but possible.
icypants
That's the point . The comment this was made to was extremely improbable, but still possible, as well.
Zetor
A communist, of course.
