of the Arctic rarely seen in the United States except in
times of food shortages. The three-pound female was ap
parently hit by gunshot and treated at Seattle’s Wood
land Park Zoo'where a veterinarian bandaged its wing.
The prognosis? Our feathered friend should be winging
it on her own within 10 days.
