Read About Our Educational Animals What happens to a wild animal after it is injured. If it is able to, we return it to the wild. But what about those that are too badly injured? You cannot return a bird that can not fly to the wild it has no chance to survive. For those that are not able to return to the wild, we have our educational programs. With some minor adjustments birds can live a long and health life and provide us with valuable educational tools. A child learns so much more when they come face to face with a live eagle than they do from a dozen films and videos of the animal.
