Safe Haven was asked to help with an American White Pelican, summering on the Platte River and unable to migrate out, due to a wing injury. After a flurry of phone calles, a concerned couple in their airboat secured him and delivery to our compound involved an evening meeting in a Meade gravel parking lot. He has taken over Chiefs stall and is eating his weight in minnows. He leaves soon in a coordinated effort with the local wildlife group to his new home in a western Nebraska Zoo.
