| bumblefoot |
A condition of the foot, usually in the form of 'corns' or ulcerations on the bottom of the foot. This can be caused by (amongst other things) poor hygiene, unsuitable perches or piercing of the bottom of the foot by the talons. The condition can be fatal, as raptors are dependent on their feet for their food. It is an especial problem during very cold weather, as it can lead to further problems if their feet get cold.
