George

George the bald eagle came to the Cleveland Museum of Natural History in November 2002. George was about 2 years old when he was found in South Carolina, shot in his right eye. He was brought to the Carolina Raptor Center for care. Because he was unsighted in his right eye, he was soon deemed unreleasable. George is now safe at the Museum, where he currently serves as a program bird.
