Vets Made This Tiny Bird With Deformed Feet Its Own Set Of Mini Snow Shoes

The California Wildlife Center recently rescued a mockingbird who was born with malformed, knuckling feet. The knuckling, which could have been congenital or a growth deformity, meant the bird could not perch on trees or walk like other birds. Birds with the condition eventually develop sores on their feet. If left untreated in the wild, birds with this condition will likely perish, Jennifer Brent, the executive director at the CWC, told BuzzFeed News.
