KERI: An injured crested serpent eagle, which was found in Chorlaghat of the Mhadei wildlife sanctuary, was rescued by forest guards of Keri forest range and handed over to officials of Bondla zoo for further treatment.

The crested serpent eagle is a raptor that feeds mainly on snakes, small birds and mammals. It is believed that heavy monsoonal showers forced the bird to take rest on a tree, where it became a victim of a more powerful  wild animal.

Suresh Usapkar, a forest personnel said, "As the bird was badly injured and could not fly due to major injury to its feathers, we have brought the eagle to Keri and then handed it over to Bondla forest officials."

Paresh Porob, the range forest officer, said, "As the bird was badly injured and needed medical treatment, it was sent to the Bondla zoo. It is very difficult to ascertain the cause of wild animal attack on the eagle."

The dark brown eagle is stocky with rounded wings and has a short tail. Its short black and white fan-shaped crest gives it a thick-necked appearance. The bare facial skin and feet are yellow. The underside is spotted with white and yellowish-brown colour.

Pandurang Sutar, the round forester, said, "As soon as our guards received information about the injured bird, they rushed to the spot and rescued it."
