Wildlife rehabilitator Lynn Vaught releases a bald eagle that was injured along the Flathead River in Columbia Falls about a month ago back into the wild Sunday. The eagle wouldn't hop out of the dog kennel, so she took the top off. The bird sustained a wound and had a maggot-infested infection in its wing before being nursed back to health.
