Yeah, mixed emotions is right. Is the Eagle really "safe" in an ugly steel jail? If it's temporary and he will be released soon that's one thing. Or even moved to another facility after treatment is completed this MIGHT work.

What if his ailment would not allow him to survive in the wild?
It is definitely mixed emotions. But I agree with all that has been mentioned, if he can't survive in the wild, a cage is probably better than nothing. Although the cage probably could be a bit larger.
Mike, I would bet the Arboretum would love to have this photo if you sent it to them. Iām sure they would share their plans that you can add here. Thank you!
Not exactly a fitting home for an Eagle. Hopefully he can be moved to a better home or released.
Agreed, but... Sometimes birds have to be confined for a healing period, depending on the ailment, especially if it is wing related, so it doesn't injure itself further.

It was Sunday and there was no one there who knew what they did with "rescued" birds.

As I told Chief, it was Sunday and there was no one around to answer my questions. I am going to follow one of the suggestions below and email the picture to the arboretum and ask about the eagle's status.
