RESCUED EAGLE. Veterinarian Dr. Mary Jane Galvez of Laoag City Veterinary Clinic administers treatment to Philippine eagle ‘Ingagan’ prior to x-ray examination. Local fishermen found and rescued  the eagle on April 21 in Nagan river in Pudtol,  Apayao. The  four-year-old eagle was brought by local authorities to Laoag City for an x-ray examination because of an old wound found in the body. Results showed an air gun pellet was embedded in the bird’s body but the wound was superficial. (Photo courtesy of Jayson Ibanez)
