Members of the UPEI community are welcome to attend the release of two juvenile eagles by the Atlantic Veterinary College’s Wildlife Service on Saturday, October 13, at 2 p.m., at the Macphail Woods Ecological Forestry Project in Orwell, P.E.I. Prior to the release, there will be a Mi’kmaq smudging ceremony and drumming. Both eagles spent a month at AVC under the care of the College’s Wildlife Service before going to the Cobequid Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre in Nova Scotia for rehabilitation. In releasing these two eagles, the AVC Wildlife Service is honouring the late Dr. Helene Van Doninck, AVC Class of 1991. During her veterinary career, she dedicated her life to caring for injured, sick, and orphaned wildlife. Should the weather be inclement, the release will take place on Sunday, October 14, at the same time and place.
