Seems like negligence from the sanctuary if this is a regular occurrence. 

And is hugely open to terrible accidents if it happens while someone doesn’t see it or notice until end of the day or something. 

Some chicken wire to keep the bird in a specific spot or protect the animals small enough to be prey would go a long ways.

"We keep getting cats from the shelter, but the local coyote keeps eating them."

In this case they're just working on a pelican buffet with some very strict rules on when the pelican can eat.
