The consecutive interventions by the agents allowed for the assistance of two protected wildlife specimens found in critical conditions. Both animals were located in the Sevillian municipalities of La Puebla de Cazalla and Cantillana, suffering from injuries that severely compromised their survival.
The swift response and the application of specialized techniques were crucial in stabilizing the birds and ensuring their safe transfer. The first alert was received in La Puebla de Cazalla, where a citizen reported an injured white stork at a waste management facility. Agents found the bird with a bleeding wound on its right wing and proceeded to collect and evacuate it.
Shortly after, another intervention took place in Cantillana. The 062 Operational Services Center mobilized personnel to a farm where a male eagle owl was found with a fractured wing, preventing its mobility and leaving it in a particularly vulnerable state. Agents managed to secure the bird by applying appropriate containment protocols.
The Civil Guard emphasizes the crucial role of citizens in these types of operations. Early notification allowed for rapid intervention in both cases.
Both animals were transported to the Center for the Recovery of Endangered Species (CREA) of Seville, where they are now receiving specialized veterinary care. At this center, professionals are evaluating their condition and working towards their recovery with the goal of their future reintroduction into their natural habitat. Authorities remind the public of the importance of not directly handling injured animals and always contacting the competent services in any situation posing a risk to wildlife.
