A coyote pup receiving treatment at the Clinic for the Rehabilitation of Wildlife (CROW) after an apparent vehicle strike in Cape Coral underwent successful surgery to repair a broken front leg.<\/p>\n

The pup was admitted at about 7 weeks old with a broken leg and head trauma on May 8 to CROW on Sanibel. On June 5, CROW reported that surgery was performed by board-certified veterinary surgeon Dr. Christopher Ferrell, with the BluePearl Pet Hospital in Fort Myers.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am always happy to help with the care of Florida wildlife to hopefully have them successfully returned to the wild,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

CROW added that the the pup recovered well from the surgery and is continuing to heal.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re very encouraged by her progress following surgery,\u201d CROW Research & Medical Director Dr. Jessica Comolli said. \u201cShe will need continued rest, rehabilitation and close monitoring, but every decision we make is focused on giving her the best chance of returning to her natural habitat.\u201d<\/p>\n

Since 2023, 25 coyotes have been treated or brought to CROW.<\/p>\n

The nonprofit wildlife hospital has seen 2,521 patients so far in 2026.<\/p>\n

CROW reported that additional updates on the pup will be shared as they are available.<\/p>\n
