About the Ojai Raptor Center
and our Mission
|
|
We are dedicated to the rehabilitation and release of orphaned and injured birds of prey and to providing education programs to teach about raptors and our shared environment, reduce common hazards to wildlife and decrease the number of raptors that require assistance.
Our all-volunteer staff is trained in the care and handling of raptors. We receive injured or orphaned birds from all over Ventura, Santa Barbara, and Los Angeles counties and assess them for injuries and illnesses, rehabilitate them, and release them back into nature.
In addition to rehabilitating birds, we use environmental education to further the survival of avian species, as well as others. Through our wildlife education program, we cover environmental and ecological concerns, teach about wildlife in our community and explain what individuals can do to help. We bring live, non-releasable ambassadors into the classroom to illustrate the behaviors, characteristics and essential roles each raptor plays in it's natural habitat.
