MARION COUNTY –A bald eagle treated for injuries in Marion County has died.

On Tuesday, a concerned citizen called county Game Warden Cody Morris about the bird that looked injured, according to a social media report.

It was spotted along a creek just North of Marion.

Warden Morris recovered the bird and transported it to the rehabilitation center at Milford Reservoir but it did not survive, according to Pat Silovsky with the Milford Nature Center.

“The bird was having a lot of seizures and that is usually an indication of lead poisoning. We will know for sure when test results are back by the end of the week,” she said.

There is lead all over from broken fishing lines, from firearms and large predatory birds are susceptible to this problem, according to Silovsky.
