On the 28th of August we got the message that a young Changeable hawk eagle that could not fly yet was rescued from the trade. The next day we went to location as we were concerned it may not receive the good care that would prevent imprinting.
On arrival it turned out to be something else (see photo), a subadult Crested Serpent Eagle and the wings are clipped. Panthera (named after the group that informed us about this case) is now in quarantine before going to the recovery cages.
This new arrival of rescued eagle of a sub-adult of Crested Serpent Eagle (Spilornis cheela) on this September. This rescue was cooperated with the one of Sukabumi nature lovers called “Panthera” where based around at Gede-Pangrango National Park. Now this eagle who named Panthera is in quarantine of Cikananga Wildlife Center before going to the recovery cages.
