About Me

This is the Official Myspace for the future Raptor Center LA.
Raptor Center LA will be the first facility of its kind in the Los Angeles Area.
The Raptor Center will exist as both a learning center as well as rehab facility for Birds of Prey.
Injured Raptors will be nursed back to health and re-released into the wild, and any birds that are unable to be re-released will become permanent residents of the Raptor Center. Our permanent residents will be our exhibition birds during tours of the facility, and they will be available to visit schools, lectures and other events.
