From Gila Wildlife Rescue
We have been pretty quiet in the rescue up until a couple of days ago. We received this Elf owl from the El Paso Zoo to finish out its rehab with us. It was found in Dona Ana County and couldn’t fly and taken to the zoo. It had an injured wing. He’s only about 4 inches tall and is an adult. His wing span is 9 inches and weighs 1 1/2 ounces. He’s a little fella. We will have him through the winter since he missed his migration to Mexico.
