More than 100 birds have been rescued following the crude oil pipeline spill in East Los Angeles, and San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance wildlife health experts are among the responders helping rehabilitate affected birds through the UC Davis-administered Oiled Wildlife Care Network (OWCN).

Since late May, San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance Wildlife Care and Wildlife Health team members have deployed to assist with the rescue and rehabilitation effort. Their work has included stabilizing oiled birds with IV fluids, tube feedings and medications, collecting blood samples, washing birds and providing ongoing care as the animals recover.

The Oiled Wildlife Care Network is a statewide network of trained wildlife care providers, regulatory agencies, academic institutions and wildlife organizations that work together to rescue and rehabilitate wildlife impacted by oil spills. San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance is one of 24 partner organizations that responded to the spill.

To date, 131 visibly oiled birds have been rescued. Eighty-one have already been rehabilitated and released, while 24 remain in care.

Meet our July/August cover star, Juliano Valdi⭐️

Making his feature film debut as the young Michael Jackson in Lionsgate’s highly anticipated film “Michael,” Juliano Valdi is stepping into the shoes of his personal icon. The biopic follows the King of Pop from his early days in Gary, Indiana in The Jackson Five to his breakout solo work that would define a generation.

Moonwalking down the Las Vegas Strip since he was just 6, Juliano is a self-taught dancer whom “Michael” director Antoine Fuqua says embodies “Michael’s spirit through his voice, his charisma, and his dance skills.”

Photographer Bradley Meinz photographed Juliano and his mother, Shi Jackson, three days before the film’s opening for L.A. Parent Magazine.

Juliano’s dance moves were fire!
