problem: We have a hawk that is stuck in our warehouse. We have called numerous animal control and wildlife rescue locations and have had no luck in getting help. I'm sure we are not the only location around town to have this happen. Could you help us solve this problem?

I am NOT an expert, just a volunteer with limited expereince with raptors in a warehouse. Unless the bird is injured or comes to the ground it will be very difficult or impossible to catch.  I was one of about 20 volunteers who tried to run down an owl in a Home Depot unsucessfully for about 2 hours. It was finally caught in a special trap by an expert falconer. Try Gary Siftar at the Oklahoma Raptor Center in Broken Arrow.okraptors@hotmail.com  I do not find a phone on the web site but they may be in the book.

Information:The Oklahoma Raptor Center has worked since 1990 to raise, rehabilitate and release orphaned and injured wildlife. It takes someone who finds an animal in need of help, and who cares enough to take action. It takes a veterinarian who has extensive wildlife experience and who will take the time from their paying practice to save these wonderful creatures. And lastly it takes a wildlife rehabilitator who has the training, skills, time and facilities to rehab the animal and release it back into the wild.
