HOUSTON — An injured hawk that took shelter in a Houston man’s taxicab before Hurricane Harvey is back in the wild.

The female Cooper’s Hawk -dubbed “Harvey the Hurricane Hawk” – was released Wednesday in north Texas.

The hawk spent the last two weeks in rehabilitation. The cab driver found her dubbed her turned the hawk into a local wildlife center. He says he couldn’t be happier that she is back in the wild.

“It’s full circle. Full, amazing circle,” said cab driver William Bruso. “It’s what is supposed to happen. Harvey is set free, and I hope she does not look back.”

Handlers who treated the hawk say she would not have survived the storm if she hadn’t hopped in the cab.
