Fort Worth Zoo's First African Fish Eagle Chick

Published 2 weeks, 1 day ago
Description

The Fort Worth Zoo celebrates a historic milestone with the birth of its first African fish eagle chick in recent years. This rare and challenging-to-breed species, weighing just 76 grams at birth, has grown significantly in the past six weeks and is being hand-reared by keepers using eagle puppets and protective gear. The chick will remain in its parents enclosure until it fledges and flies on its own in about 70-75 days, contributing to a stable population in captivity.
