Adopt-A-Raptor

Adopting an ambassador bird is a fun way to support the work of The Raptor Center. We have as many as 30 birds up for adoption at any one time. Adoption gifts help feed, house, and provide medical care for these education stars, who because of extensive injuries cannot be released back into the wild.

Adoption gifts also provide
• Highly skilled medical treatment for other sick and injured raptors
• Educational programs to schools that could not otherwise afford these unique presentations
• Funds to inspire 200,000 people each year through community outreach programs

For a one-year adoption ($120) you will receive:
• A professional color photo of the bird you adopt
• A personal tour and an opportunity to visit your adopted raptor
• Certificate of adoption
• Brief biography of your raptor
