Raptors

A raptor, or bird of prey, is a bird that hunts for its food. Some popular examples are eagles, hawks, owls, and vultures. There are more than 560 species of raptors, and they can be found on every continent (except Antarctica).

While being some of the world's most beloved animals, raptors have faced challenges due to the loss of native habitat, human–wildlife conflicts, pollution, and global climate alterations.

Recent studies by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature and BirdLife International found that 30% of 557 raptor species worldwide are threatened to some degree. 

Together we can inspire, protect, conserve, and rehabilitate birds of prey.
