My Lab, Chance, was hopping around and all excited, so I went out to see what was going on. He had somehow caught a little sparrow, and was playing with it. I took it from him, and it was alive. No blood; no open wounds. Wings were intact. It was looking at me. But it was only moving its head a bit, and she twitched her leg when I touched it. I wrapped her in a small towel, and nestled her in my bathroom sink. I did get her to drink a bit of water. So, I'm thinking she might make it. I checked her about 15 minutes later, and she was lying quietly, her eyes open. I was really hoping that with a bit of rest, she would be O:K: Sadly, not to be. She was dead the next time I checked on her. I can only imagine her terror, as this large "beast" had her in its mouth. His fun was her death...so sad.
