Of all the wing injuries that I see, probably the "best" ones are
fractures in only one of the forearm bones, in that they are the
easiest to treat and show the greatest success rate.  The bird has
an excellent chance of regaining the full use of his wing, as long
as he has ample exercise.

Now, going to a conservation officer was not the best thing, because
again, you had too little evidence.  The thing to do is hunt the
gunman down mercilessly and extract a pound of flesh in any way
you can.

Just don't get caught.
