Field Trips to ORC for School Aged Students

This engaging one-hour program offers students, grades 4-12, a unique opportunity to explore raptor biology through both tactile examination and live demonstrations. At our biofacts table, students will handle feathers, feet, study skins and other specimens to understand key raptor adaptations, such as flight mechanics, hunting strategies, and sensory abilities.

Following this, they’ll witness those very adaptations in action as our non-releasable raptor ambassadors demonstrate natural behaviors in live presentations. The program covers important topics like raptor ecology, conservation, and the factors that lead to each ambassador’s non-releasability.

Field Trips can be customized to fit your class’s curriculum.

Field trips are offered in Spanish upon request.
