Alaska Raptor Center
Established in 1980, the Alaska Raptor Center provides medical treatment to over 200 injured bald eagles and other birds each year. Our goal is to release our patients back into the wild; some, however, are injured so severely they could not survive in the wild even after rehabilitation. These birds may join our Raptors-in-Residence, providing excitement and education for more than 36,000 annual v

The World Cup is here, and our staff was asked which teams our raptors would support. 🦅⚽ And the results are in! These are our guesses at who our Raptors-in-Residence would be cheering for during this tournament!🏆
Meet one of our newest patients at the Alaska Raptor Center! This Bald Eagle was admitted after a fight with another eagle. During the examination, our staff discovered a brood patch, a featherless area that develops during nesting to help keep eggs warm.
Fortunately, no major injuries were found. Since this eagle likely has a nest to return to, we were able to quickly release it back into the wild so it could get back to its important job as a parent!
Here at the Alaska Raptor Center, the Suzanne and Walter Scott Foundation Bald Eagle Flight Training Center provides a critical flight conditioning space for the Bald Eagles under our care, as well as offering outstanding opportunities for visitors to watch the birds regaining their flight abilities, without the birds ever seeing or hearing people.
