An injured ibis with a two-foot arrow stuck through its body continues to elude rescue workers in Holly Hill, Fla., but now veterinarians believed the arrow is working its way out of the bird, according to a Local 6 News report.

The young white ibis was first seen last week. It was shot with a dull arrow, which appeared to have missed vital organs and muscles but remained lodged in the bird.

Bird rescue teams and neighbors have repeatedly spotted the bird but have not been able to capture it.

"I have captured hundreds of birds," said Bob Hunt, a volunteer with the Bird Rescue Center in New Smyrna Beach. "You would think this would be one of the easier ones."

Local 6 News reported that veterinarians monitoring the bird said it appeared the arrow is working its way out of the ibis.

However, rescuers still want to capture it and give the bird medical attentions.

Trappers said they need a net gun to capture the ibis. Anyone who would can help is urged to call 386-423-4353.
