This has been a super big deal here! Canuck the Crow

[Danita]

Is a local celebrity and some guy at a soccer tournament clobbered him.
Awful!
Canuck the Crow assaulted, injured at kids' soccer game

This is the story. That is Dr M that cares for the WPR birds, the fundraising is for her!

If you go on his FB page, you can see all his fans.

Omg, that makes me so angry! I hope whoever did it gets hits by a semi truck.

 

[Danita]

They know who it is, the people at the soccer game took pics.

That crow is quite a guy, if something happened to him, it would be awful.

What is wrong with people! If you have ever seen clips of Canuck riding the Sky Train you know he is docile around humans yet a grown man cracked him on the head with a wooden flag stick! I don't understand some people.

Wow. Im just wow. Thats a terrible story... i hope the crow heals good as new. And who ever did it gets jail time. Animals only have us. This video has made me very sad and loose a little more hope for humanity.

Hopefully he heals fine and still likes his friends. Poor guy just doesn't know any better and trusts everyone now. When we rescued Beeper our baby house finch we rescued from a crows dinner plate she needed feeding and healing and she bonded to us. We couldn't just chuck her outside after that and she got a extra happy year and a half she wouldn't have.
Some people are just sociopaths who have no empathy for any other living beings and I hope he gets what's coming to him.

Scumbag.

 

[Tiel Feathers]

This story makes me so angry and sad. I really hope Canuck makes a full recovery.

 

[Heather F]

How awful! I hope Canuck makes a good recovery and is able to get back to his old antics. He sounds like quite the personality!

 

[BirdGuy21]

Poor guy. Hope he heals and is back to normal in no time. And I hope they find the coward who did it and charge him appropriately.

 

[Tyrion]

Unreal ..some people need a stick to the head

 

[Danita]

Canuck is at the hospital still.
The reporter was commenting on how nice that the crow is calm. The doc said, it's a bad sign he is calm.
I will see what today's news is.

 

[Lwalker]

I hope he recovers.

 

[EllaMay]

Hope he recovers with no ill effects.

 

[Aubrey]

That poor crow

[Birdbabe]

@$$+0((#! Who hurt him! Hope he's charged to the full extent! As for Canuck, may he heal quickly !

 

[CrazyBirdChick]

I just found this story.
Canuck the Crow: SPCA seek witnesses after beloved bird attacked at soccer game

It says Canuck is "brightening up but will be kept for observation for a few more days"

I sure hope he's going to recover...and that they can prosecute this monster!

There's also a special place to donate to the hospital in his name, just for Canuck, if anyone can spare some more money.
