The bald eagle shot by a ball bearing in Northglenn is making progress after surgery, officials said Thursday.
The eagle was rescued from the shoreline at Croke Reservoir with the metal projectile lodged in its right wing on Jan 12. The case is under investigation. Bald eagles are a federally and state protected species.
Colorado Parks and Wildlife said: "She's got a long road ahead of her and progress will be slow." If you have information on the shooting, call Operation Game Thief 1-877-265-6648.
