Occurred on June 28, 2024 / Cross Lake, Manitoba, Canada

"I came across an eagle with a hurt wing, and I knew I couldn’t just leave it there. For over an hour, I stayed close—talking softly, keeping calm, and letting it know I was there to help. Eventually, the eagle seemed to recognize my intention, and it came closer on its own. That’s when I was able to gently pet it, offering comfort so it wouldn’t feel alone or afraid. As an Indigenous person in Canada, this moment carried deep meaning for me. Under our cultural rights, we have the ability to connect with and care for these sacred beings in a way that honours our traditions."
