© The Raptor Project 2003
The
Raptor Projects is an extraordinary and outstanding array of eagles, hawks,
falcons and owls that have won the rapt attention of enthralled audiences
throughout the nation. Presenting almost 1000 educational programs to over
10 million people annually, The Raptor Project leads the way in outstanding,
top quality, professional wildlife education. Featuring 15-20
raptors from diverse habitats at each presentation, these dynamic fierce
predators capture hearts of both young and old.
The Raptor Project founders, Jonathan and Susan Wood of New York's Catskill mountains have assembled a traveling collection of feathered predators that is unrivaled in scope and size anywhere in the world. Jonathan Wood is a Master Falconer and Wildlife Rehabilitation, bringing unique insights, observations and humor to his exciting, riveting, nationally acclaimed shows.
Many
of the birds in 
The Raptor Project have
permanent handicaps and
have been donated to his project by crowded wildlife centers around the
country because they
were unable to be re-introduced to the
wild. Some faced euthanization and now have been tamed and
trained to educate the public as charming ambassadors of their species
and the environments
they inhabit. Jonathan
and Susan Wood and their staff operate the organization from a beautiful
14 acre, private facility
in New
York's Catskill mountains. All birds are housed, exercised and cared
for in spacious, state of the art aviaries.
Jonathan Wood works with birds in a wide rage of sizes. From small falcons and owls weight 3-4 ounces to majestic eagles with 6-8 foot wingspans. He is honored with 35 years of handling experience and has produced and presented The Raptor Project to over 10 million people... up close and personal!
