Monarch the Falcon’s Recovery | Madison News

A peregrine falcon named Monarch, born atop the Madison Gas & Electric building, took his first flight — and broke his leg. After a dramatic fall, he was rescued by the Dane County Humane Society, underwent surgery with pins and an external fixator, and is now recovering in cage rest. Once healed, he’ll move to outdoor pens to rebuild strength, with hopes of reuniting with his sister Honey before migration. Meanwhile, MG&E is donating $15,000 to build new solar-powered flight pens — potentially including Monarch’s future home.
