Rehabilitation and Release
OCBPC believes that a life in the wild bird is preferable to a life in captivity. We provide each injured bird the opportunity to resume life in the wild. We believe raptors play an integral role in the balance of nature. State and federal laws help protect this balance.We reintroduce raptors under specific conditions: following state and federal guidelines, respecting current wild raptor population cycles, and considering environmental factors.
Rehabilitate and release a significant percentage of all injured and sick raptors entering the facility. The more raptors we return to the wild, the greater the genetic diversity of each species, which aids long-term survival.
Education
OCBPC believes most raptor injuries are prevented through education. We engage with thousands of people each year, through programs featuring our education ambassador birds at schools, civic groups, county and state parks, and many other locations.
To inspire stewardship and compassion through our wildlife education by sharing stories of the roles these birds play in the wild, the challenges they face, and what we all can to do help protect them.
