Shubie river wranglers eagle rescue

The bald eagles on the Shubenacadie river are a huge part in helping us deliver such great tours every day, so it was nice to be able to help one out when it needed a hand. Our close encounter only added to the enormous amount of respect we already had for these incredible birds.

What started as a normal day turned into a wild and unique Shubenacadie experience. We were out rafting when we came across an injured eagle on the sandbar. After seeing this eagle struggle to take off from the sandbar we knew something was wrong. After several failed attempts to fly off the sand bar, the eagle found himself caught in the incoming tide and quickly swept away by the tidal bore.

We watched and tried to position ourselves down the river and close enough to the eagle to lend a hand however we could. Despite continuing to struggle and encountering some quite large waves, it was able to maintain its upright posture.

Now, we had a strong sense that the eagle had sustained a severe injury that prevented him from taking flight. We managed to get him into the boat safely and we did our best to keep him at ease as we travelled back to our rafting location.

Once we arrived back to our site @hopeforwildlife arrived to take the eagle and provide him with the care he required. The eagle recovered completely from its injuries and was eventually released to its natural environment.
