As of today, 923 wild bird patients have been admitted into TRC’s raptor hospital. Here are just a few recent releases of patients who made a full recovery and are back in the wild where they most belong. The Raptor Center’s 50th year of caring for birds in need is on track to be our busiest by far, currently outpacing our previous record of 1,183 birds in one year by 15%. As our case load increases, so too does the cost of caring for these magnificent raptors. Recently, our hospital staff admit

Did you know? Golden Eagles have a wingspan of 6-7 feet and due to their large size they can hunt wild goats, turkeys, and small deer. Raptors can only carry about a third of their body weight, so Golden Eagles will push goats off cliffs or tackle turkeys to the ground to get a meal. Even though they can hunt large animals, they choose rabbits and other medium-sized mammals more often. Golden Eagles will also fight off coyotes and fox who are trying to steal their food!

We need you to help name our newest Northern hawk owl ambassador! VOTING HAS CLOSED Which name do you think best suits her as she begins to educate and inspire the public with an appreciation for raptors? Will it be SITKA, after the Sitka Spruce tree Northern hawk owls can be seen perched atop? How about FROST, to represent the chilly forests the owl lives in? Maybe you fancy SURNIA, from her species' scientific name of Sernia Ulula? Perhaps AURORA, after the Northern lights? Or maybe ZIM, to re

Caring for baby vultures is intense, but after 126 days in our care and $13,000, these young birds are back where they belong. Rehabilitating raptors - especially baby raptors - takes a lot of time, food, and resources, but it’s worth it. You can help us continue to provide life-saving care to vultures like these by supporting our Save the Scavengers campaign at the link in our bio. Our goal is to raise $15,000 for vulture rehabilitation, education, and conservation. Will you help us get there?

When you just can’t wait for your visit to the Raptor Hospital 🦅📦 In reality, our Raptor Rescue volunteers are highly trained to capture sick and injured birds and bring them in for treatment. Sometimes this takes a lot of patience, but other times, it takes having a box in the right place at the right time......#carolinaraptorcenter #wildliferehabilitation #funnyanimals | Carolina Raptor Center

This might seem a bit like hair extensions on humans, but it’s feathers, and it’s not for beauty but for a raptor’s speedier return to the skies. The process of “feather imping” has long been a part of falconry. Imping has a history going back hundreds, if not thousands, of years, and the technique involves joining the shaft of a broken flight feather to a compatible “donor feather” harvested from a bird that did not survive or a feather that was molted. If patients have damaged feathers, imping

We don’t know about you, but we are thankful for this cold weather. Last week, after cold temperatures allowed for ice to re-accumulate on our rivers and lakes, wild bald eagles congregate around areas of remaining open water, allowing us to release two juvenile bald eagles who have been in our care since July. In Minnesota, bald eagles generally hatch from their eggs in April, and fledge, meaning they start to fly and leave the nest, around early July. Juvenile bald eagles spend 8 weeks with th

🌍This Earth Day, we’re shining a light on one of nature’s most important environmental allies, raptors. These incredible birds aren’t just fierce hunters, they play a vital role in keeping ecosystems healthy. As top predators, raptors help control populations of rodents and other small animals, creating a natural balance that supports entire food webs. They’re also powerful indicators of environmental health. Since raptors sit at the top of the food chain, changes in their behavior or populatio

We are delighted to share an extraordinary story that unfolded in our community recently. It all started when a homeowner, Mr Kramarczuk, detected unusual sounds coming from his fireplace. Upon closer investigation, he discovered a barred owl got stuck inside the chimney! Thankfully, Mr Kramarczuk gave us a call and we quickly asked for help from a friend of The Raptor Center. Fredrickson Masonry, a roofing company who has worked with us many times to save raptors from chimneys, successfully res

FUN FACT: Scientists aren’t sure what it’s for! As Pishi, the King Vulture, plays with enrichment, it’s hard to miss the floppy orange thing on her face. That’s called a caruncle - a fleshy growth that hangs from an animal! A variety of bird species have caruncles. A comb on top of a chicken’s head or a wattle on a turkey’s neck are examples of caruncles. In King Vultures, the caruncle hangs from the base of the beak in both males and females. While other species are thought to have caruncles fo

“Do your birds get cold in the winter?” Many birds have specially adapted feathers that help keep them warm in colder temperatures, like we’re currently experiencing. As you walk our Raptor Trail, you’ll see a number of birds native to North Carolina. These birds need little help adjusting to the weather - they’re already built for it! Other birds on the Raptor Trail are native to warmer parts of the world. These birds received special care to ensure they stay warm and comfortable in the winter.
