We came home and little penguin was caught in the fence. Her wing looks inside out. There is no broken skin. Im afraid to try to flip it back right side out as I don't want to make anything worse.
What can I do?

She thought she felt a break below the joint and with how upside down it looks I'm sure the ligaments and tendons are all torn. I don't want to cause more damage. If I were to try something and made it worse, I would have to cull her, for her sake.This looks dislocated, the longer you wait the more difficult it will become to relocate the wing due to the expected swelling of the tissue.
I will get fresh pictures in the morning and will try the vet again. It looks upside down from the ulnar ro the wing tip.Are you certain almost looks like the wing is still in place could you post a photo of the ther side of the bird please
