OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) – A Washington state wildlife rescue group is asking people in the Olympia area to help watch for a Canada goose with an arrow through its breast.
Workers with the state and the For Heaven’s Sake Wildlife Rescue in a small boat tried to grab the bird Wednesday afternoon in Capitol Lake, but it flew away.
The Olympian reports (

For Heaven’s Sake’s director says the goose is likely still in the area. Searchers hope to find it and take it to a veterinarian.
Photos of the bird indicate the arrow entered its right side and went out its left.
