With a bold vision for the future focused on research collaborations, expanded outreach opportunities and plans to build a new home for its resident raptors, the center is poised to boost tourism and further elevate the Auburn brand, while bolstering its mission committed to raptor rehabilitation, education and conservation.
Five decades of steady growth, the rehabilitation and release of thousands of injured raptors, and a vibrant educational program promoting raptors to countless participants have the Auburn University Raptor Center one of the most visible areas of both campus and its home unit, the Auburn University College of Veterinary Medicine.
Beyond the critical work performed within the center’s walls, pregame stadium flights of the center’s resident eagles have raised awareness for raptor conservation while while building one of the most recognizable traditions in all of college sports.
And all of this is made possible through the efforts of a dedicated team, coupled with the support of generous donors.
2022 marked the 50th anniversary of the Auburn University Raptor Center and, as we embark on the journey that is our next 50 years, we will continue to grow our reputation as a national leader in raptor medicine and research, and as a One Health collaborator. We are poised to make the center one of the preeminent academic raptor centers in the nation and plans are underway to house it in an expanded world-class facility. This will allow us to better achieve our goals, increase our capacity and improve our standard of care, while offering visitors an outstanding experience that is uniquely Auburn.
