Raptor Education

Our Raptor Education programs last 60 – 90 minutes, and can be tailored to meet the needs of any age group. Live birds of prey accompany us in all presentations. We are available for schools, clubs, corporate events, fairs, outdoor camping events, private parties and many other venues. Program costs are based on a number of variables including distance traveled, number of participants and number of programs per day.

Programs:

We offer 3 different learning tracks:

  1. Raptor Relatives

  2. The Art of Falconry

  3. Raptor Rehabilitation

Intertwined within all of our workshops are teachings on the human/bird relationship, the predator/prey relationship, and why it is important for students to care.  We strive to inspire awe and wonder, show ways in which humans have impacted these animals, and what it might look like if we all took steps to help. All of our presentations can be tailored for students from 1-12 grade, as well as for adults.
