Talk:Nugget

I asked my mom and she remembers that Nugget had been shot and couldn't be released to the wild so it was donated to USM. She also remembers the death being pretty controversial. No one really knew if he had been shot, starved, whatever. -- Brad

I seem to remember hearing way back in the day (before Nugget died) that the eagle had been shot when it was younger and was nursed back to health, then given to USM. If that's true then maybe those were the pellets the first autopsy found? -- Brad
