A flightless bald eagle who previously went viral for incubating a rock has made headlines again—but this time for fostering a young eaglet before its release into the wild.

Murphy was hatched at a facility in Oklahoma in 1992 before being sent to the World Bird Sanctuary in Missouri. Injuries rendered him flightless and prevented him from being released into the wild, so he had to remain at the sanctuary.
