Rescued Big Bear bald eagle Jackie is ‘stable,’ wildlife nonprofit says

Jackie, the prominent bald eagle from the Big Bear Valley nest, is now stable following her rescue this weekend. Fans of the famous nest livestream had been tracking her disappearance from the area for several days after she failed to return to her usual spot.

Wildlife officials confirmed that the eagle was located on the ground near Dana Point Park in Fawnskin on Thursday and Friday. Witnesses observed her engaged in a confrontation with two younger eagles during that time, which likely contributed to her injuries.

Friends of Big Bear Valley, the organization responsible for monitoring the nest, provided this update on her condition. She is under professional care and is currently considered stable as she recovers from the encounter. Her partner, Shadow, remains a focal point for viewers of the popular nest cam.

This incident highlights the unpredictable nature of wildlife even for birds that have become familiar to thousands of viewers online. The nonprofit continues to manage the situation and will release further details about her recovery timeline as they become available.
