Interview from the AM show with the rehabbers showing off their ruru wrangling skills.

Text from video:

This is a ruru / a morepork. This one was found on the side of the road with a fractured wing. He’s had surgery and he’s had pins put in his wing. Cailin and Chelsea – the techs here – are just giving him his morning fluids to make sure he stays really well hydrated.
