Arvy The Pelican Update
After being rescued from the frigid Connecticut waters and returned to the sunshine state, Arvy the Brown Pelican is doing great.

ESSEX, CT — Arvy the rescue Pelican, who found himself misplaced in the Connecticut River, at the dock in Essex, a few weeks ago, got his much-needed surgery this week in Florida, at the Busch Wildlife Sanctuary.
He is reportedly doing well!
He was able to retain more of his feet (which were damaged by frostbite) than the veterinarians originally thought possible, which is great news!
