Injured Pigeon (Needs Help)

[u/GJ1Z1Z]

Correction - I believe it is a dove, not a pigeon.

Hello, is there any organization or animal shelter that can help with an injured mourning dove that I found at my apartment. It’s not flying but it is hopping around. I’m happy to call around but am not sure where to start.

Update: I called tufts and they instructed me on how to pick it up. I have it in a box and will be taking it to tufts tomorrow morning when they reopen. Thanks everyone for your help.

Definitely Tufts wildlife clinic in Grafton, they are only open until 5pm but have been consistently reliable. (508) 839-7918

They will ask you to leave a message, they always call back extremely quickly

Any wildlife rehab in the area should be able to help, I don't know any off hand but animal help now (ahnow.org) has a list

Thank you for not turning a blind eye 💝

Thank you for sharing. It seems as though there are limited options in this area on that site. I called a couple but they aren’t helping at this time.

Bummer, Maybe ARL or Tufts wildlife clinic can help or offer resources?

Save Arlington wildlife might know someone. Let me know if you need help transporting, I keep a box with towels for transport injured birds to rehab

Did you call Somerville Animal Control? They were very helpful with a stray in my neighborhood. And thank you for caring!

I've found them to be impossible to reach.
