OJAI RAPTOR ~ JACKIE IS RECEIVING CRITICAL CARE LIFE SAVING BLOOD TRANSFUSION & CT IMAGING 💕 7.23.26 Helldivers 2 [rQODECOjXBz]

Update from Ojai Raptor Rescue July 23rd 2026

Over the past several days, our veterinary and rehabilitation teams have continued providing around the clock care for Bald Eagle patient 26-519, while working to better determine the underlying cause of her condition.

One important milestone in her treatment was a successful life-saving transfusion, made possible through the generosity of Spirit, the resident Bald Eagle at California Living Museum (CALM Zoo) in Bakersfield, and the incredible veterinary and animal care teams at CALM Zoo. Their willingness to help is a wonderful reminder of how the wildlife rehabilitation community comes together when an animal is in need.

We are also incredibly grateful to the team at Veterinary Medical and Surgical Group (VMSG) in Ventura, especially Dr. Higgins and the staff, for super el nio us weather providing advanced CT imaging to assist with this case. The willingness of these dedicated professionals, together with members of our Veterinary Advisory Council, to share their expertise is helping us provide the highest standard of care possible.

Initial testing has allowed us to rule out several potential causes, including lead toxicosis and the presence of foreign items such as fishing hooks, lines, and weights. Her kidney inflammation appears to have improved.

The patient's condition remains critical, and she continues to receive intensive care in our urgent care unit. A treatment plan has been developed to ensure we are covering all bases while we work to determine the cause of anemia. She is eating well, perching, and remains bright and strong.

While we are encouraged by the dedication and collaboration surrounding this case, it is still too early to predict the outcome. We know many of you are hoping for more answers, and so are we. Wildlife medicine often requires patience, and some answers simply take time.

Thank you for the thousands of messages of encouragement and continued support. We kindly ask the public, and especially members of the media, to give our veterinary and rehabilitation teams the time and space they need to focus on patient care. Please refrain from calling, texting, emailing, or visiting our facility for updates.

If all goes according to plan, we hope to share another update on Monday. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
