## Caption

A Florida man rescued an injured bald eagle after jumping into an alligator-inhabited lake in Lakewood Ranch last week.

Doug Hay, 70, was able to retrieve the eagle and bring it to land before it was reportedly transferred to a wildlife center in Venice, Florida, where veterinarians found an "open hole " in its thoracic cavity and said the bird would need weeks to recover. #lakewoodranch #florida #venice #baldeagle #eagle
