If Violet's baby, or eyas, were to be captured, said John Blakeman, a hawk expert, it could probably never be released in the wild. |
|
According to viewers of the Hawk Cam, when the eyas stood up at about 6 30 a.m., the bag was gone. |
|
If Violet and the eyas need to be relocated to the zoo, they will be separated and cared for individually, Mr. Bopp said. |

And, crucially, she can still use her right foot to hold prey while she pulls it apart to feed her baby, or eyas, Dr. Bunting said. |
|
To be at hack is to be in the state of partial liberty in which eyas hawks are kept before being trained, not being allowed to prey for themselves. |
|
After braving weeks of harsh weather and the risk of accidentally eating a poisoned rat, a red-tailed hawk named Violet became a mother on Friday morning when an eyas, or baby hawk, hatched from one of her eggs. |

But, he added, if by next week the eyas has not freed itself from the disposable bag, then a Long Island-based wildlife rehabilitator, Bobby Horvath, will attempt a rescue with a long-poled net. |
