LEE COUNTY, Fla. -- Florida Fish and Wildlife, as well as the Lee County Sheriff's Office, needs your help to find at least three potentially injured bids.

Deputies got a call on Saturday about two vultures and possibly one bald eagle that had been potentially shot with arrows.

Both agencies responded, but the birds were not found.

The report did not give a location as to where this happened.

They're asking anyone with information to call the FWC Wildlife Alert Hotline at 1-888-404-3922.
