Vision

Develop a highly specialized and multi-faceted bird of prey centre – entirely unlike any zoo or bird park – equipped to deal with rehabilitation; education; conservation and eco-tourism.
Operate not entirely independently, but in affiliation with other reputable wildlife organizations, for the benefit of raptors throughout South Africa.
Release only prime rehabilitated candidates into the wild population, meaning that they should be healthy, fit, able-breeding, proven to be hunting successfully and therefore self-sustainable.
Preserve South Africa’s wild raptors, and their natural environment, through community awareness programs and the promotion of organic farming methods.
Use eco-tourism, private conference / function demonstrations, falconry hunting expeditions and film & photographic shoots to help self-fund the core programs.
Assist local entrepreneurs in becoming self-sustainable by providing indirect employment through retailing locally manufactured crafts and products to local and international markets in our curio shop.
