BIRDS OF PREY- THEIR BIOLOGY, HUSBANDRY, MEDICINE, SURGERY AND THEIR RELATIONSHIP TO HUMANITY
Speaker: James Roush, DVM
Falconry is the process of hunting with trained birds of prey, which capture game for the hunting party. In veterinary medicine, there are two populations of birds of prey which are encountered, one being trained falconry birds. The other category is wildlife rehabilitation, treating sick and injured birds of prey for release, or for display or educational purposes. I'll cover both categories.
