We tried two kinds of medicine over several days. The medicine did not help. We made the final decision to handle her for an exam. In the meantime, I took video clips of #735 running and trying to open her wing so the vet staff would be able to see what I was trying to describe over the telephone. The video confirmed the need for an exam and radiographs at Disney.

The trip to Disney World came on March 3, 2008. Trackers Anna, Eva, and I went out to the pen early in the morning. It would be a long day with 4 hours of driving back and forth. The capture went smoothly and once back at the boat ramp Eva took care of the boat so Anna and I could get on the road with #735.
