Beautiful filming, thanks. In the north midwest, I saw more raptors the past two years 2023 and 2024 seasons than in any of the past six years, and an incredible number of 9:07 American kestrels especially this spring and summer 2024.
Raptors are like cats, I guess? One of my cat would never eat the reddish colored treats; only the brown. The other did not like shrimp - only salmon. No chicken for either.
Strix Strix is a genus of owls in the typical owl family (Strigidae), one of the two generally accepted living families of owls, with the other being the barn-owl (Tytonidae). ... Strix (bird) Strix owls Temporal range: Early Miocene to recent Class: Aves Order: Strigiformes Family: Strigidae Genus: Strix Linnaeus, GFU XRAPTOR XRAP XURCRAP
These birds are all non-releasable due to permanent injuries, being imprinted, or being raised in captivity. Whether they regularly go on trips outside of their enclosures depends on the individual and the best enrichment for them. Vultures, for example, are often taken out on ‘walks.’ (They’re fairly intelligent, so they need *a lot* of enrichment.)
The chance of them being released are depend on how severe the injuries are. Very serious injuries(mostly caused by human) that make wild birds unreleasable such as bone fracture close to the joint, bone fracture that is too late to repair, very severe head trauma, human imprinting(being kept and feed inappropriately by unprofessionals). These birds will either be humanely euthanized or being kept as educational ambassadors. If these birds are set free(which is very ethically wrong). Surely there will be problem happen to them. They will not survive in the wild - if they cannot fly well enough, they will suffer from starvation, getting predated by predators with no chance to escape naturally. So that’s why it’s safe for them to be in good housings with daily enrichment to enhance their life quality. And they will live longer than in the wild. These birds educate and inspire lots of visitors. Some of them can even raise and feed young birds that come into care(eliminate the chance of the babies to imprint on human). Remember, the Raptor Center’s main goal is to treat sick and injured wild birds with their best to get them back into the wild. Even in these processes. Injured birds are absolutely needed to be in cage safely until they become close to 100% fit before getting back to the wild.

Live only a mile from this place, looks neat. I'm just not interested in seeing wild life in captivity and being used to make money. That's just me though.
Their main goal is to treat injured and sick raptors and return them back to the wild. These birds that are shown in the video here are mostly non-releasable wild birds with untreatable condition that make them not good enough to survive in the wild. They educate lots of visitors about how fascinating raptors are and why they needed to be protected. Nothing about making money from captive wildlife.
As someone whose dear housepets are a pair of big white bunnies rescued from a lab, I want to ask if you ever feed dog legs or parts of all the feral cats eating the song birds. Bunnies are great pets: quiet, clean, curious, vegetarian and misunderstood. Are the rabbits you use vaccinated for RHDV? This disease is killing wild rabbits. Raptors may have to start picking-off the stray cats and dogs. Good luck.
Beautiful birds.
We are so pleased to have had Oregon Field Guide visit the center! You have captured our passion and what we are about! Thank you from all of us!

Really cool, I Love this, thank you 😊
I visited this center as a kid! Got to dissect owl pellets! The snowy owl and burrowing owls were so cool!
Ty that was very helpful
New subscriber. I love all birds , vultures are so important. Glad I found this!!
Very interesting and enlightening.
Putting has now become shifting
0:01 "Hoot!". Me: Ok, thumbs up!
🥰😍👏🏻 love it 😊
Goal is to become a Falconer and have a Raptor sanctuary.

How can I have a job like this? Should I go back to school?
it' so sad watching those who cannot be released... happy you can save them anyway

Great
Thx
Yes please people, KEEP YOUR CATS INSIDE. scary how many people argue you this common sense topic.
4:15 if i could get free food 24/7 i dont think I'd fly away either.
I have been respectful.
I wonder how often the raptors are actually released vs long term care. I hate seeing animals in cages.

Freemasons love owls
So do Christian birders!

.....really? You are crazy. Rabbit is a common meal for raptors in nature. Dogs and cats are not.
Leafy (sp?) has to be the most attractive vulture I’ve ever seen. 🦤
