Two vultures in Connecticut were rescued and treated for severe intoxication after ingesting fermented fruit from a dumpster. Initially believed to be in critical condition, the birds were just too drunk to stand or fly.

Wildlife rehabilitators provided care, hydrating the vultures and giving them a hearty breakfast before releasing them back into the wild. The staff jokingly noted that the facility could have been mistaken for a “detox center.”
