Adopt a Raptor

The primary aim of our rescue and rehabilitation programme is to release the birds back into the wild. For a number of reasons this is not always possible. If a bird of prey doesn't have perfectly functioning wings or eyes, it can not hunt its own prey and would starve if returned to the wild. These birds find their forever home in one of our raptor centres where they live happy lives, some even breeding and raising chicks that are released in the wild. All of them help us create awareness on raptor conservation.  

By supporting one of the featured birds you help us pay for their care which includes food, enclosure maintenance, enrichments, medical care and salaries for staff to feed them and clean the enclosures.

Woodstock, an African Wood-Owl, is in our care since 2011. Flying into a window left him with permanent brain damage. He is as cute as can be, but doesn't like close contact with humans. 

Support Woodstock for $5.00 per month.

Phil, a young Verreaux's Eagle-Owl, was brought in with a broken wing which didn't heal perfectly. He's also partially imprinted which makes him an excellent educational bird

Support Phil for $7.50 per month.

Although named Yusef, we don't know if this Ruppell's Vulture is a male or female. With lots of mates around, we're confident we will one day know when he or she starts breeding!

Support Yusef for $10.00 per month.

Cassie, a Black Sparrowhawk, was rescued in 2013 after injuries left her with a broken leg and wing. Her leg healed, but permanent wing damage means she cannot return to the wild. Now, with a mate, Cassie thrives in our care and supports conservation through our breeding programme.

Adopt Cassie for $75 per month.

Blue, an African Fish Eagle, has been in our care since 2014 after nest poachers left him with a broken wing. During treatment, the vet sprayed him with Alamycin, a broad-spectrum antibiotic. The spray's temporary staining effect caused his feathers to appear blue —earning his unique name.

Horace

Horace, a Lappet-faced vulture, has been in our care since 2016 after surviving a poisoning incident. While we saved his life, the long-term effects make it impossible for him to be released back into the wild. His companion, Amira, also suffered from poisoning and shares a similar story.

Adopt Horace for $125 per month.
