Help! Found a Bird That Can't Fly

Next time something like this happens, just take the animal to the Toronto Wildlife Centre. It's down by Downsview. They're actually equipped to deal with injured and orphaned animals. I took a baby possum down there whose mother was dead (baby was found clinging to it), and they knew how to take care of it. Great people.

Another +1 for these guys. We also came across an injured bird a few years back, and even though we were in Mississauga they had a volunteer drive out and pick up the bird for us.
 
Sadly TWC is very strict with zoning as I mentioned. If an animal is found outside their area they refuse it. I am in Richmond Hill and they wouldn't take my bird. They are VERY strict about it. Best chance is to lie and say it is found within their zone. They are out of North York. Doubt it's the case for all animals but I know for birds and other creatures they are firm on this policy.
