Sammy the bald eagle, unable to fly after being shot, is the victim of a birdnapping

The federally protected bird was taken from his cage early July 16, the refuge says. The thief cut through two layers of fencing to get to Sammy and carry him out.The Suffolk County SPCA released surveillance video from the night of the birdnapping that shows a person walking through the parking lot with some sort of package and driving away.Sammy cannot fly, as his right wing was partially amputated after he was shot in 1988.

"OUR BALD EAGLE WAS TAKEN AND IS MISSING!" the refuge posted on Facebook."He will be stressed and cannot survive without our care. We want him back unharmed. It is a federally protected bird and cannot survive in the wild as he has an amputated wing."The Suffolk County SPCA, the Nassau County SPCA and Suffolk County Crime Stoppers have banded together to offer a $15,000 cash reward for information that leads to an arrest.

Horrible! I hope they catch the person & prosecute to the fullest extent possible!
